Large Churches and Missional Centers | Nazarene Presence on the Florida Megaregion (1912-2018)

8/18/2018

2 Comments

 
Only three of the churches on this megaregion run over 1,000 on a given Sunday.

These three churches account for one out of five worship attendees. Two are in Lakeland and one is in Miami.

There two other churches that run over 500, one in Bradenton on the west coast, and the other in Miami. 

Two of the top five in worship attendance are designated as ethnic churches. 

Churches of this size could fill the role of being a missional center, capable of raising up new leaders, preparing them, and sending resources to fund the mission beyond their local context. This is a heavy responsibility for only three congregations. 

About half of the churches reporting attendance are running over 75 in worship attendance. (96 of 214). 

One-third of the churches are less than 45 in worship attendance. 

The geographic center of the Florida megaregion is Port St. Lucie on the east coast. This measurement was taken by determining the distance halfway from Lake City to Key West.
