How does this New Life Church operate |
|
Does one need tickets or reservations to get in for the services? Do you have to be invited? Or are walk-ins accepted? Do they have a dress code? Are black people allowed in? Is it a big place?
Thanks in advance for any info.
Don

1. It's the size of an airplane hangar, or larger. |
|
They get several thousand people at each service three times every Sunday. It doesn't discriminate based on race, walk-ins are encouraged. I'm not sure about any formal dress code, but most people who attend wear "business casual" or jackets & ties.

3. Do they broadcast the services live? |

I searched and found that they have three Sunday services. But I couldn't find any tv info.

9. I was hoping to tune in tomorrow to New Life in the Springs |
|
I saw at the web site that they have podcasts. Maybe someone will go in with a small camera to tape some and You Tube it.

5. They have 14,000 members and advertise as charismatic |
|
Translated, they are a bunch of gung ho right-wing Christians waiting for Armaggedon and thought W was the answer and their givings to the church would help their stature at rapture.
I feel sorry for them to some degree. But they enabled W to carry out a war on innocents.
