To say men are absent from Christian churches may seem to be an incongruous statement when the church is largely seen as a relic of the patriarchy. Many denominations do not ordain women and most have men in their pulpits. Men seem to run the churches. But if you look closely at the activities and maintenance of the church, a different picture emerges.

Most of the people in the pews are women -- 60 per cent or more. And a larger percentage of women sustain the church through their presence on committees and their faithful work in the programs of the congregation.
