Just about every Christian church in Massachusetts was shut down for two months as a result of the coronavirus emergency, and it is having a negative impact on them financially.
For many churches in Massachusetts, the last Sunday service they held was on March 15. That means they missed out on having an in-person service on Palm Sunday and Easter — which took place on April 5 and April 12 this year. Typically, those are two of the most-attended church days of the year.
