 Church size and population of city |
chestnut ridge |
For your church to be viable, what is the acceptable size/% based on city population
Example, in a city of 25,000 should your church size be at least 1% of the population?
If your church size is 100 are you being effective in that community? |

This is a great question. I’m putting together a demographics study for my pastor as we begin to plan to reach a greater portion of our small town. Amazing what you can find out by doing this. Since I live in a predominantly retirement community, only 24% of the people are below 55 years of age. Going after that age group is going to be our new mission!

There are advantages to being a part of a small church, especially if there is a lot of love and a strong sense of community.

I understand that. But as your city grows shouldn't you be able to grow as well
If you were at 100 when the city was at 15,000 and still at 100 when the city grows to 25,000 are you stagnate? |
