A church in Minnesota, United States is planning to kick out their old parishioners to attract younger ones in a bid for survival. However, the church aims to reopen in November with a new game plan: get rid of present members, most of whom are over 60 years old. The church argues that reopening is the best way to gain younger families as members, as per report. Old members could come to the Woodbury branch instead, said church head Rev. The old members will also not be physically barred from the church, but they are expected not to attend at all, according to Jeremy Peters, a specialist the church hired for the reopening plan.
