On the Philadelphia Archdiocesean website, you can see statistics showing a decline in percentage participation in certain areas of the diocese (especially poorer neighborhoods). At the same time, the Southern Baptists have created about 17 new Churches in these areas during this time frame. Ain't that a kick?

is there a minimum number of Baptists to start a church or do you just need a minister?

The Southern Baptists have the same attendance problem the Catholics have - less than 1/3 of those on the roles are in the pews on any Sunday.
