Coronavirus is taking a financial toll on Colorado’s houses of worship. But religious leaders still have faith.

Title (Dublin Core)

Coronavirus is taking a financial toll on Colorado’s houses of worship. But religious leaders still have faith.

Description (Dublin Core)

During the pandemic, many places of faith are on the verge of closing their doors permanently. As people lost jobs, giving obviously declined. Because houses of worship rely entirely on giving, this has created a crisis for many churches, mosques, synagogues, and temples. These houses of faith still have bills to pay, they have employees to pay, and the vast majority of these houses of faith contribute significantly to their community. This article speaks to the uphill battle being faced specifically by places of faith in Colorado during the pandemic.
