Christianity has been the dominant religion in the U.S. since its beginnings. In the early 1990s, as many as 90 percent of people identified as Christian. 

That's been changing. A Pew Research Center survey finds in 2020 Christians accounted for about 64 percent of the population. This coincides with an increase in the number of people who don't affiliate with a religion. That number in 2020 was 30 percent, up from 16 percent in 2007. Reverend Keith Yamamoto is the Rector of St. Mark's Episcopal Parish in Upland.
