Congregation draws an
adult crowd that’s 61%

to 80 percent female
participants.
• The majority of
church employees are
women (except for
ordained clergy, who are
overwhelmingly male).

of the boys who are
being raised in church
will abandon it during
their teens and
twenties. Many of these
boys will never return.
