Ethnic Churches | Nazarene Presence in the Florida Megaregion (1912-2018)

8/18/2018

0 Comments

 
More than half of the churches in the Florida megaregion are designated as ethnic.
Or, 125 of 239 active churches.

Membership in these churches represents 47% of the total Nazarene membership in this megaregion (17,371 of 37,240 members).

The earliest organized ethnic church is Miami First which is designated as a Black church, using statistical terminology in how Nazarenes gather data. This designation distinguishes Black from Haitian and Multicultural. There are ten Black churches, 40 Haitian, and 10 Multicultural churches on the megaregion. These designations do not account for individual members within a congregation but the congregational membership as a whole designated in the annual church report given by the senior assigned pastor. 

Ethnic churches are pretty evenly divided between Florida district (mostly in the northern half of the state) and the Southern Florida district (64 to 61). 

About four out of ten ethnic churches run over 75 in worship attendance. 

Miami Bethany Church of the Nazarene, designated as Hispanic, has an average worship attendance of 1,053. Forty-three percent (43%) of ethnic churches on this megaregion are Hispanic (54 congregations).
