Church attendance rising after Charlie Kirk's murder, particularly among youth: Evangelism leader

Some pastors have reported seeing an increase in church attendance following the assassination of Charlie Kirk, particularly among young adults, some of whom haven’t attended a worship service in years.

JP De Gance, the founder and president of Communio, a ministry that helps churches evangelize better and expand their outreach capacities, believes that Kirk’s message has inspired many young people to experience the Christian faith through a church community.

“[There has been] a lot of anecdotal feedback from churches in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, and Douglas County, Colorado, reporting that they’ve seen an increase [in attendance] over the last two Sundays,” De Gance told The Christian Post.

“There's one church in Michigan that said a number of young adults who were raised in the church [but] who hadn't been there, and people hadn't seen them for years, showed back up."

Communio, which serves around 400 churches nationwide, has received reports of increased attendance from various religious denominations, including Anglican, non-denominational, and Catholic churches.

Let's pray this time things will be different, that the young and old will be mentored, and not turn away. Let's pray that those Christians who will be teaching/sharing at the colleges will reach many who will want to turn to the Lord.
