Religious Service Attendance in the U.S.

Church attendance in the U.S. has declined over the past two decades, with only 30% of adults attending religious services weekly or almost every week. The most observant group is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, followed by Protestants, Muslims, and Catholics. Majorities of Jewish, Orthodox, Buddhist, and Hindu Americans seldom or never attend religious services.
