America’s Protestant churches are gathering in person at a rate far greater than the beginning of 2021, a new survey from Lifeway Research reports.
But it’s unclear how many worshippers are filling the pews.
“Despite a new variant wave of COVID-19, 97% of U.S. Protestant churches met in person during January 2022, while 3% say they did not gather for in-person services,” according to a report from Lifeway Research, the polling arm of the Southern Baptist Convention.
