Church Workshops - Why??

Our Flock is Lost{1}:

• 90% of Americans identified as Christian in the early 1990s
• 64% of Americans identified as Christian in 2022
• 29% of Americans identified as “none” in 2022

“After this many of his disciples drew back and no longer walked with him.” (Jn 6:66)

• Today, 1/3 never attend Church (an increase of 25% pre-pandemic){2}
  • Ages 18-29 make up largest section in this group (41%){2}

“Will You Also Go Away?” (Jn 6:67)

• Infrequent Church attendees are most at risk of not coming back{2}
• Americans are experiencing a ‘loneliness crisis’{2}
• 56% of U.S. workers say financial stress impacts their mental health{3}

Our flock is hurting…be intentionally creative: A reason to come back, come together & reduce financial stress

Goodbye Money Stress is YOUR ANSWER!
