Cell groups meet on Sunday and Wednesday nights. The groups are organized for young married couples, singles, divorced or widowed people, couples in their 40s, and single mothers with children, Christian Chronicle magazine said. The church considers prayer to be vital. Leaders encircle the baptistry before services and pray for people to come, become Christians, and be baptized. A 15-minute prayer during each service mentions the needs of the congregation, including those that are written on cards and submitted to the pastor.
Members say they try to show love to newcomers in every way possible.
Preaching deals with sin and is never watered-down, the church says. Many congregations report increased attendance among teen-agers and adults, the Associated Press said. Services certainly doubled in attendance. The April 20 massacre has changed peoples view of life and death. This was so unexplainable, so incomprehensible.
