Decline in weekly church attendance alarms pastor
A Syracuse pastor notes that weekly service attendance is dropping as many people choose TV faith over in person worship. A Zogby poll of 505 adults across four counties shows shifting religious engagement with a margin of error about 4.5 points. The 1984 sample excluded Cayuga County, affecting later comparisons.

Prayerful Nation Appears In U S Survey Findings
A Scripps Howard News Service and Ohio University survey of 1015 adults finds slightly more than half pray daily and most believe God answers prayers. Younger adults show far lower daily prayer rates, while regular churchgoers pray more. The study, Sept 22 to Oct 11, has a 4 percent margin of error.
