PE pinged me to a megachurch thread a bit ago. I shoulda pinged you to my response. I think I told you at one time that I grew up in Asbury UMC. I visited their website out of curiosity the other day... my beeber is stuned, I say!

I had no idea they had changed so much. WOW! 25-20 years ago they were large, but nothing like they are today. The website says their 11 pastors support almost 7,000 members. They have 28 discipleship groups.

I am just astounded at the change. The pastor emeritus baptized me and confirmed me (and he was old then). Their discipleship minister was my jr high youth leader. Everyone else is new except for the secretary.
