Re: Where are They?

Do OP churches, when they report numbers, report by average Sunday morning attendance, or do they count by membership? My former church kept saying how many they baptized, but few ever came back more than a few times. They also talked about growth in terms of Sunday School attendance (when it looked good). Neither of these shows true effectiveness. These truly only show initial impact.
