how many assemblies of god churches in america
Assemblies of God USA The Assemblies of God in the United States "has grown steadily during the 20th century".[81] In 1925, there were just 50,386 members in 909 churches, but by the early 1970s membership had reached 1 million. Its most rapid growth occurred from 1971 to 1984, when the AG grew from a constituency of around 1 million to 2 million over a 13-year period.[82] In 2011, average Sunday morning worship attendance for all AG churches in the U.S. was 1,872,399 people. In the same year, the AG's inclusive membership (includes persons of any age that identify with the AG) was 3,041,957 people attending 12,595 churches. That is an increase of 0.4 percent since 2010.[83]
Religion in the United States The majority of U.S. adults self-identify as Christians, while around 20-25% claim no religious affiliation.[3] According to a 2017 study by the Public Religion Research Institute, approximately 69% of the Americans identified themselves as Christians, with 45% professing attendance at a variety of churches that could be considered Protestant, and 20% professing Catholic beliefs. The same study says that other non-Christian religions (including Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Islam) collectively make up about 7% of the population.[1] According to a 2016 Gallup poll, Mississippi (with 63% of its adult population described as very religious, saying that religion is important to them and attending religious services almost every week) is the most religious state in the country, while New Hampshire (with only 20% of its adult population described as very religious) is the least religious state.[4] The same company found in 2016 that 73.7% of Americans is Christian, comprising a 48.9% of Protestants, a 23.0% of Catholics and 1.8% of Mormons; the 18.2% had no religion and the 5.4% was affiliated with another religion.[5]
