The 200 curse!!!

[Sam]

I went to a Vineyard Church in the Cincinnati area from November 1992 until around Easter 2006. We had about 5000 people each weekend in several services. I've sat in the auditorium looking around and only recognizing a couple of faces in the crowd. I was on a weekend service prayer team who prayed for those who came forward for prayer; I was part of the Monday night Growth and Healing Prayer Team; I was (still am) on the Home and Hospital Prayer Team; I attended a Wednesday morning prayer service; I usually did out reach on Saturday; and I was a POC (Pastor On Call) from 1998 until 2003 but I still would only recognize a few faces during weekend service. My wife was not involved in different activities so she really only knew a few people there. I used to tell people, "I'd really like to be part of a church that is smaller and more Pentecostal" and so that's why we changed churches in 2006. We now go to a church which does not count people on the weekend but I guess we have about 100.
