Summer Church Growth
 
While historically a lot of churches (not so much Pentecostal ones) in summer see attendance drop the church I attend has gained about 100 people in attendance since summer started and last Sunday night we baptized 8 or 9 people.

Last Monday night I dropped in on our once a month meeting for new members or people interested in the history of the church, etc and I counted a little over 30 folks there.

When our church first started five years ago a large part of the congregation was college kids so you could really tell when Spring Break was going on or the summer vacation. Now that our demographic has broadened to include a lot of 30ish families and older folks that is not the case now.
