This more of Buffalo shrinking than the Church.Yes and no
The City center has a shrinking population ...but the suburbs are still pretty stable.. They are merging suburban church and country churches as well..

What's interesting is how the members of the PCA (membership 350,000 and growing at 0.73% woohoo i.e. 5000 a year --> that's until they have their next split) and the church-of-one types keep saying that they have experience of these things.
The sad truth is that many of these names pretend to be ex- this or that and a few even pretend to be Christian. All that they have as their religion is hatred of orthodoxy.
