520 |a Past research indicates that levels of social embeddedness in a congregation differ between small and large congregations. Since embeddedness in religious social networks is an important predictor of community involvement, this study contributes to the literature by examining whether the relationship between embeddedness in congregational social networks and involvement in community organizations varies based on congregation size. Using a sample of attenders and their congregations from the 2008/2009 U.S. Congregational Life Survey, a national survey representative of American congregations, this study examines the relationship between social embeddedness in a congregation and involvement in community organizations and the cross-level interaction between congregation size and social embeddedness. Results suggest that the relationship between social embeddedness and involvement in community organizations is positive overall, but stronger in larger congregations. Involvement in community organizations is the most likely for attenders of smaller congregations and attenders who are socially embedded in their congregations, but it is the least likely for attenders of large congregations who are not very embedded in them.
