| We have room to grow a little without adding another service. We have room for around 300 per service, maybe 350. They say when you get to 80% full chairs you are at capacity.
We had four services today for Christmas Eve and totaled around 1250 for all four. The last service there were 450 which meant there were close to 100 in the lounges watching on closed circuit tv. Not a good situation but it is hard to control when people come.
There isn’t a desire to grow for the sake of growing. The desire is to bring those seeking Jesus to a place where they can worship and grow in their faith. It takes more then the building. The pastor, the music, the people, and a lack of controversy are all a part of what makes a church healthy and growing.
