Larry Lavin

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Larry Lavin, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Episcopal Church in the United States of America

Please see previous discussion on membership numbers Talk:Episcopal Church in the United States of America and in the archives of that page. In a nutshell, There was a dip in 2003 that was recovered by 2005: this might be a statistical fluke or represent a recovery. "The Christian Century" article of Nov 2006 gives a count for active membership of 2,205,376. This is stated as being a "net loss of nearly 115,000 members over the past three years.

To quote the article:

On the three-year loss of 115,000 members, James B. Lemler, Episcopal director of mission, said in an interview that the totals "are not more than we expected." Lemler also said that officials were heartened that average Sunday attendance in 2005 did not decline as it did in the previous two years. The average Sunday worship attendance in 2005 was 787,000 people, down only 8,500.

So the article itself suggests things have flattened out. But more to the point, TEC's most recent membership stats as of Jan 2007 of 2005 parochial reports found here [2] give "total active baptized members" of 2,369,477. The difference of 2,369,477 - 2,205,376 = 164,101 which is about 50 000 greater than the loss between 2005 and 2002.

Please discuss on the talk page - Talk:Episcopal Church in the United States of America#Membership - rather than reverting. Cheers! Wassupwestcoast 02:21, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I revised the membership section based on the latest information (2006 numbers). Is the quote above from Lemler meant to suggest that losing 115,000 members is okay because they weren't more than expected? Add another 50,000 plus to that number for 2006. Is losing 167,000 okay if it's what is expected? By the way, some losses from 2006, including large parishes, won't figure in until 2007. But as long as the losses aren't any greater than expected, all is well.
