Here (SF 'burbs) it's once an hour and doesn't run early enough for me to get to the early service. So if it's true that people will commute just as far to church as from work, they're willing to put in more effort. (Or drive to church when they take transit to work, maybe the balance being tipped by the greatly-reduced car traffic on Sundays.) I'm loving this series of posts.

But then, many non-farmers in rural areas also drive long distances to get to work. My experience in rural churches is that people will drive a long way to get to church.

I do travel more than that - but because I'm the co-lay leader. Are people in urban areas more likely to travel that length of time for the "average" Sunday service?
