Just curious for those of you who attend shul, is your congregation growing, shrinking, or staying about the same?
The Chabad shul I attend on occasion has been stagnant for years, very little growth other than all the kids the chabadniks have.
The other Orthodox congregation I attend on occasion has been growing a lot, it needs a much bigger space and is currently fund raising to enlarge the building.
Most of the growth is coming from younger families moving into the area.
I don't keep up with the other congregations in town, so am not sure what is up with the Reform and Conservative end of things.
