If you want to use one word, I suggest non-attender, meaning that a person is not a churchgoer. In the Catholic Church, someone who no longer goes to church is referred to as a lapsed Catholic.
The correct name of the popularly called Catholic Church is The Holy Roman Church. The word "Catholic" is not a part of its official name.
The correct spelling is 'absence'.
Yes, it can be said that dirt was dished in his absence, meaning that negative information or gossip was shared about him while he was not present.
The correct spelling of the word is absence (being away).
That is correct, a group of people assembled for worship
No it is not, "I started going to church" would be correct
'In lieu of my absence' is a phrase, not a sentence. As a phrase, it is grammatically correct, and could form part of a sentence, although it is not easy to think of such a sentence. It means 'Instead of my being absent ... ' So, how about 'In lieu of my absence, you have my presence!' as a jocular exclamation made by someone who turns up at a meeting for which s/he has previously given an apology for absence.

Either is correct in most cases.
absence of matterADDED BY JACOBM1198:Actually, white is the absence of color. Many people think that black is the absence of color because they think it is the absence of light, but it isn't true. Black absorbs all light and all color, which is why it is dark and less reflective than white, which reflects all light and color. Therefore, white is the absence of color. Absence of matter is not correct.
The general usage word is 'absence', meaning 'being away'. There is also a medical term relating to epilepsy often spelled 'absense' but this is an incorrect spelling. The correct spelling is also 'absence'. - bja
Yes, the sentence "when he officially files leave of absence" is not grammatically correct. It should be "when he officially files for a leave of absence."
