In the press release on the 2007 Yearbook of American and Canadian Churches that moved yesterday, in the list of the 25 largest churches in the U.S., the last two grafs should have read:
24. The Orthodox Church in America, 1,064,000 members, no increase or decrease reported.
25. Jehovah's Witnesses, 1,046,006 members, reporting an increase of 1.56 percent.
We regret the error.
