We would be lucky if there were 20 people in our flock on Sunday, whereas in the 80s, when we were growing up, there would be an average of 40+ of us on Sunday...when the church is crowded with harvest festivals, Christmas, confirmations, etc.


It seems that young people are not interested, too boring / junk dealer? Is there anything that needs to be done before he is put on life support?


By the way - is it the same in all Protestant religions in the south?

It is a true statement, in my opinion. Unfortunately, this church is experiencing hard times right now. Moreover, the people themselves are to blame for this. The church is not a human invention. It is not a collection of specialists who have appropriated the right to be an intermediary between God and the world. The church is all of us. Therefore, I try to visit firstchurchlove.com every week. Spiritual enlightenment depends on each of us. By the way, people are mired in their sins. We all need forgiveness.
