leeme,
you can do that too , as long you can find ways and meant to brainwash, sell your products well to people with the help of the bible, they will flock to you, money will come n you start finding bigger place ( more people mah) with better stage, hire professional artist to perform during service, preach all those things that suit their hearts and slowing suck their money lor.

hi again!

i think in today’s newspaper reported a better way of this . “Largest indepedent church is City harvest”. I think this way is less misleading/confusing since they are non-denominational and reflects the truth better.

in terms of membership among other independent non-denominational churches they should be the largest.

just saying “largest church” in singapore is quite misleading/confusing. Or maybe more detailed like ” largest church in terms of members attending a single physical place/building of worship”?

for ordinary people like me on the street ..

quite impress in how they can combine concert/showmanship/self-improvement course/fashion/bible in their services.

thanks!

Leemee, they are talking about individual churches, not denominations and the like. The Methodist denomination may have more than 33,000 members in total, but no individual Methodist church has more than 33,000 members. Therefore, City Harvest is the largest church in Singapore.

It usually means the average attendance (and not registered membership) of all who attend the main worship services and other such services like children’s church, chinese service, etc(on Sunday or over the weekend).

By such accounting, CHC is the largest in Singapore. But not in SE Asia or Asia.
