 While some churches across the country are shaking off the financial effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, a new survey of pastors reveals the troubled  economy is  now having an adverse financial effect on the churches as well,according to the Worthy News website.


A Lifeway Research study of U.S. Protestant pastors found that 52% say the current economy is having a negative impact on their ability to operate. For 40%, the economic circumstances aren't having any effect. And 7% say the current economy is a positive factor for their churches.
