Yes.

“For where two or three come together in my name, there I am with them.” – Matthew 18:20.

If you have a spouse and kids, or if you have even one other co-traveler, you can have church every day.

“and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” – Matthew 28:20.

What, no Saturday services? Amatuers.

Just kidding. 😃 If memory serves, Westminster Church (the Anglican one) offers daily (or near-daily) services. I really respect that tourists aren’t allowed in on Sunday, except to worship.

My Catholic parish does not have a Saturday morning Mass or a morning Communion service. All we have is the Sunday Vigil Mass at 4 p.m. on Saturday. So, yes, it is possible to find a Catholic parish that does not offer daily Masses/services too.

Hello Ahimsa,

I understand what you are staying but I was talking about actual denominations.

Peace.

I think what Ahimsa was getting at was the fact that daily services are scheduled at the local level , rather than the institutional level, even in the case of Catholic services. I’ve known a number of Evangelical churches that have had worship services/Bible studies available every night of the week based on the need/demand for it. Few Protestant denominations appear to have prohibitions against daily worship.

It is the same lack of need/demand that has caused all the Catholic churches in this diocese to move to a “3 times on Sat/Sun and 1 time on another week day” model. One could almost attend daily daily by visiting all the parishes in the diocese, but not quite.

Yes. I know the Episcopal church near my office has daily services and kids I went to school with had to attend nightly with their Christian and Missionary Alliance parents.

The schedule of services in churches depends on the demand of the faithful as well as the supply of priests or ministers to actually conduct them. Large active churches with fulltime paid clergy tend to have activities more often than small churches whose clergy have to work 9 to 5 Monday through Friday.
 
Many Orthodox Churches, especially Cathedrals, have daily services.

And of course, Orthodox Monasteries would have them.
 
Latter-day Saints have their regular church services only on Sunday morning (three hours) but can go to temple any day Monday through Saturday (almost two hours) with services available throughout the day and into the evening. However, temple is usually a once a month activity.

What do they do when they are “in temple”?
