I wondered how that worked. So you have small churches in your large church?

All Sunday School classes have large groups and then within those groups are small groups. That way everyone gets ministered to and doesn't get lost in the crowd.

I was raised in small So. Baptist churches in So. Calif. I absolutely love the big church.

We are really self contained. Sports or whatever your need or hobby you do not have to go into the secular community.

I know a lot of people think that this is sheltering your children from the world, but not so, because there is plenty of opportunities to get out there and help in neighbor hood VBS or other community services.

My Granddaughter who has spent her entire 22 years in this church, is now teaching English in the Intercity to high schoolers.
