churchgoers
Weekly worship attendees
Churchgoers are people who attend church services, typically on a regular basis.
The term emphasizes the habitual nature of attendance rather than mere belief or membership; someone might identify as Christian without being much of a churchgoer.
The early service attracts mostly older churchgoers.
The word often appears in discussions of religious participation trends or community demographics.
