How do you pronouce this?

I keep seeing the acronym for Church of God in Christ: COGIC

And because it's so long I keep trying to make it into a word instead of initials.

Like with UPC, I say 'You Pea Sea'.

And with COGIC, I say Caw-Jick. But that may not be right.

Should it be Co-Jick?

Or Saw-Jick? Or Saw-Gick?

What do YOU do with it?

Those of us who are heavy coffee drinkers say "You Pee Sea"!

Caw-jick is how I kept hearing it when I went there.

When I was a kid I did that. Would stand outside the church which had the name of the church and UPC in big black letters. Now that they have added the I it's just not the same.
