Your church growth
I'm curious about how much your local church is growing. Are you seeing frequent visitors? What % stay to become members? Are you baptizing them? Are you seeing few if any visitors? If you are seeing any growth at all, are they transfers from another congregation?
In the small CoG congregation I attend, we have seen a drastic reduction in the number of attendees over the past two years. A lot of that is due to a young pastor taking the church near us just 5 miles away. They have newer music and programs for the kids and teens, whereas we have none of that. Consequently, we are losing people and seeing fewer visitors.
I'm really interested in hearing about your church!
