Calling All Megachurches!
If your church averaged 1,000 or more in weekend worship attendance during 2007, we want to include you in our annual megachurch issue.
If you were listed last year, you should have already received an e-mail from us with the form for reporting your statistics.
If we somehow missed you last year, if you haven’t received our e-mail request, or if 2007 was your first year to average above 1,000, please let us hear from you this week.
Our deadline is approaching soon. We must receive your data by February 11 for your church to be included in this year’s issue. Write jh*****@*********ub.com today, and we’ll forward our simple form for you to complete.
Each year our megachurch issue is one of our most popular, mainly because it contains information unavailable from any other source. We work hard to make the information complete and accurate, and we depend on our readers to make this possible.
Is your church a megachurch? Please make sure you’re listed in our megachurch issue!
