这项研究的目的是探讨COVID-19对美国受痴呆症影响的黑人家庭参与教会的影响。半结构化的采访进行了目前的照顾者，教会领袖，和痴呆症患者（n = 16）。出现了以下主题：（a）继续宗教活动的能力，（B）增加教会参与，（c）团契的重要性，（d）技术的作用，（e）新常态。随着互联网成为新的教会建筑，在线礼拜服务使更多受痴呆症影响的家庭参与进来。许多教会领袖表达了在疫情后继续提供在线崇拜服务的意图。家庭强调他们需要与其他教友联谊。技术被视为一把双刃剑，既是宗教参与的动力，也是宗教参与的障碍。这些发现将有助于宗教领袖了解他们的会众在COVID-19大流行期间的需求，例如允许患有痴呆症的家庭继续从事宗教活动并以有意义的方式生活。
The purpose of this research study was to explore the impact of COVID-19 on church engagement for Black families affected by dementia in the USA. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with current caregivers, church leaders, and persons with dementia (n = 16). The following themes emerged: (a) Ability to continue religious practices, (b) Increased church engagement, (c) Importance of fellowship, (d) Role of technology, and (e) New normal. As the Internet becomes the new church building, online worship services enabled more families affected by dementia to engage. Many church leaders expressed the intent of continuing to provide online worship services post-pandemic. Families highlighted their need to fellowship with other congregants. Technology was perceived as a double-edged sword serving as both a motivator and a barrier to religious engagement. These findings will support faith leaders in understanding the needs of their congregants during the COVID-19 pandemic, such as allowing families living with dementia to continue engaging in religious practices and living in meaningful ways.
