Pelcovitz, an internationally renowned expert in trauma and loss, often discusses the coping traits of "attenders" and "distracters." ❋ Unknown (2009)

They are "attenders" but not on the membership roll, which he said is not unusual in Alaska. ❋ Unknown (2008)

Since church attenders have more social connections all around, they are also more likely to be contacted by friends, family, neighbors, and co-workers, and so church remains in last place.15 When we focus squarely on evangelicals, we do not find that they have an unusually high level of personal political contact from fellow church members. ❋ Robert D. Putnam (2010)

As expected, a higher percentage of frequent church attenders say that they have been contacted by a co-parishioner than Americans in general, but that figure is still only 17 percent. ❋ Robert D. Putnam (2010)

Third, Figure 4.5 shows that previous accounts of stable attendance among liberal Protestants are misleading, since those attendance figures are based only on the rapidly diminishing numbers of people who still claim adherence to one of the mainline denominations.29 In effect, observers who claim that the fraction of observant mainline Protestants has not changed overlook the fact that the mainline losses have come mostly in the denominator (members), not the numerator (attenders). ❋ Robert D. Putnam (2010)

Frequent attenders were slightly more likely to be Republicans. ❋ Robert D. Putnam (2010)

So, relative to the working class, college grads are more likely to be church attenders, and those church-attending college grads are increasingly likely to be Republicans. ❋ Robert D. Putnam (2010)

Interestingly, spirituality comes up as a potential yellow light on the test -- given that they are both church attenders, I make a note to explore this, along with the theological roots of our Episcopal marriage service. ❋ Elizabeth E. Evans (2011)

We are sort of religious people and we are definitely regular church attenders and from that perspective I will tell that you that regular church attendance does not matter. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Survey after survey shows us that regular attenders are more likely to already volunteer in their communities, and not just with their congregations, but in other organizations. ❋ Unknown (2011)

For as much as the participants all but two self-described "regular church attenders" talked about their faith, the conversation was overwhelmingly dominated by their concerns about the economy, their frustration with Mr. Obama, and their desire to get a conservative leader who could beat him. ❋ Kimberley A. Strassel (2011)

This is a great recipe for driving out any talent and leaving yourself with the do-nothing meeting attenders. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Poor attenders fell on Jeremy or Simon coming up to the monsoon 13 ❋ Unknown (2011)

I am reminded of this phenomenon whenever I encounter any of those most passionate arts attenders and patrons -- every community is filled with them. ❋ Unknown (2010)
