Less than half of American churchgoers plan to invite unchurched people to Easter worship service this year, a new survey found.

Only one out of three active churchgoers (31 percent) said they would definitely invite someone they know who does not usually attend church to join them for Easter service, according to a Barna Group survey that examines Americans’ view on Easter.

The survey also found that though a solid majority of Americans would describe Easter as a religious celebration (67 percent), only a minority (42 percent) connected Easter with the Christian belief in the resurrection of Jesus Christ. the rest image by phoebe photo
