How big is your church?

As Skid said our family lives on an island so our "church" is just our family, and sometimes visiting relatives.

Normal attendance in my church is 70-80, and that's comfortably full. We can squeeze lots more in though.

The church we attend seats about 300 and we average about 250.

I don't like to call the building 'church' because the church is the Christians gathered together.

Now my church has three separate buildings in separate locations and the main building holds about 400. Our church has about 150 members but attendance averages about 160 each week.

The two other buildings have worship once to twice a month (if I'm correct).

On Sunday MOrning we usually have about 80- or more ( that's a guess but it sounded good ).

Our worship center holds 1335 people, and we have around 3,700 people attending every Sunday. Very, very large.

Between 5 and 6 thousand. About 60 people come weekly, but 60 is between 5 and 6 thousand

I was thinking, "Wow, that's a huge church!" and then I kept reading.

Good one!

I go to New Life Church in Colorado Springs - so that's about 14,000 members.

14,000?

Depending on which church we go to, we either have around 100 or 40ish.

hope it wasn't a contest! I've been in smaller churches before, but know I'm called to be at New Life, at present.

(love that Dr. Watson pic... the old Basil Rathbone/Nigel Bruce movies were awesome)

peace!

Our church has actually pushed past 4,000 now! I'm so happy! We have so many new members.

I'd have to say 350 give or take a few. We have an awesome ghetto church, which is a branch off Chalvery Chapel. $\:D/$
