Based on the limited view I had this morning of the congregation and the views I have had of it before it appears to me that the new building is mostly empty on Sunday morning. I have been told it seats around 5,000 and it looks like at most there are 1,500 people there. If I recall correctly the old sanctuary seated about 3,000 people? Somebody who knows please confirm or correct me.
In any case it appears that the Sunday morning congregation would easily fit in the old sanctuary. Unless I am wrong in that thought my question is why doesn't the church sell the new Sanctuary and property if it is not needed? Clearly they have not seen the growth they anticipated when it was built years ago. The cost of operating and maintaining two large locations must be consdierable.

Was there for a funeral on Friday 3-13-15 I think there was about 2000 at the old church and parking was hard to come by.
