We don't live in LC, but not far from it. Also, my wife is from Bro. Ewing's church and still has family that attend there.
The number would probably be closer to the 700 mark for Eastwood. Great church, growing, probably a premier Apostolic Church.
Yes, there are about 6 other UPC churches in LC.
Bro. Massey (Livingway- formerly Bro. Nugent) runs close to 1000 if not more.
Bro. Ralston (1st Church) runs close to 500 if not more.
Bro. Ewing (Eastwood) runs about 700 and their daughter work runs close to 100.
Bro. Mahoney (Moss Bluff) probably between 200-300. Bro. Phil Jones attends here, he would be able to give more accurate count.
Bro. Treece (Apostolic Temple) probably about 400-500.
Bro. Hasty- Estimate about 300.
Bro. Stanton (Westlake) Estimate 300-400.
Truly there are many more churches around LC. Totally saturated with Oneness UPC!

Kutless, I don't live in the Lake Charles area, but according to the UPCI directory, there are seven UPC churches listed for Lake Charles. There may be even more in the surrounding area.
It's saturated with oneness churches, that's for sure!
And most of them are pretty good size. DeQuincy, LA, which is just a few miles away has 2 large UPCI churches. (Actually, there are 3--which I recently learned--but I think number 3 is on the smaller side.) DeQuincy's population is about 3200 according to Google.
I know a LOT of churches in LA in small communities that run 100 or better, and a large number of them run 250 or more.

Yep! And here in the Tulsa metro area (Bible belt no less), churches are lucky if they run 100-200. Crazy.

Kutless, the Lake Charles area is somewhere around 150k or upwards of 200K when you factor in the surrounding cities.
Moss Bluff
Westlake
Sulpher
Lake Charles
are a few of them. in those towns, there are more like 15 or 20 Apostolic churches which would include UPCI, ALJC, and Independants that I know of.
many of these churches run between 500 and 750. the Lake Charles area has a pretty heavy Apostolic influence.
Brother Nugents church (they have a new pastor now as Brother Nugent is the Bishop) has a fantastic work at the local College. McNeese University Apostolic Student Union feeds somewhere around 600 students every wednesday?
I think we have at least 1 member of one of these churches who posts here.
"Bro. Massey (Livingway- formerly Bro. Nugent) runs close to 1000 if not more."
..........
That me me!
We had prophet/healer Freddy Clark here this passed Sunday and Monay. Wow! He and Sister Silvia have 11 children. 5 were not there...they won a talent contest on the fox network....?...something about bands? The clark brothers.

Then there are the ALJC churches. I know of one in the Sulpher area that was around 600 some time ago.
brother Alvear has a good independant (AMF?) church in that area too that is also quite large.
