Race tensions at Berkshire conference spare church members
New York Episcopal leaders face race debates as Berkshire conference opens in North Adams. The report cites shifting parish demographics with a 28.8 percent rise in metropolitan communicants but declining Sunday school rolls in Manhattan, while suburban growth fails to offset urban losses. The Little Church Around the Corner is noted for high marriage rates compared to Grace, St. Bartholomew, St. Thomas, and other parishes, drawing attention to clerical influence on matrimony.
