Re: Lets make a list...
I do know that the UPC at one time did "require" ALL Home Missions Churches to have United Pentecostal Church on the sign somewhere. I refused to have it on any of the churches I planted and the DS & HM Director did say that I had to do it, but I never did. It always was - what you could get away with in the UPC. The big dogs made the rules and expected everyone else but themselves to live by them. Well, most of them lived by them until they got to the City Limits sign and were headed out of town! Oh, and this is not a bitter rant against the UPC. There are some good people in the UPC and God bless them!

Re: Lets make a list...
So does the UPCI still have a good sized membership? or is the organization becoming obsolete?

Still growing. Not all Evangelical or Protestants can say that.

Hey Hoovie, Where is it growing? I do not know of ONE church in Georgia that is as big today as it was 10 years ago. It may be growing overseas - but I really do not think it is growing here in the USA and if it is -WHERE?

AB, The Church I attend is larger numerically than ten years ago.
Charnock is offing these statistics, however, we need to factor that several dozen left the UPC to form the WPF. No longer a part of UPC stats - true but for all practical purposes still there and not changed.

Have I seen them? Yes. Do I have them to whip out in ten seconds? No. We had a whole thread on this. Charnock can probably tell you the link to the thread or to the stats.
