A 'tsunami' of church closings poised to reshape America
Original: A ‘tsunami’ of church closings is poised to remake America
Reports warn that a wave of church closures across the United States could soon reshape communities, as declining attendance and rising maintenance costs push congregations to sell or shutter their buildings. Commentators describe the trend as a 'tsunami' for American religious life, with implications for neighborhoods that have long centered on local churches.
Why now: Falling church attendance and growing coverage of congregation closures have made the future of religious institutions a timely topic.
