1 of the 2 Fastest Growing Church's in St. Louis

Last week on Saturday, Element Church had a free carnival, were we served over 2700 people. That is unheard of for a church less than 3 years old. With the move to our new facility, we have grown over 120 people, which means we have grown over 30%, in less than a month. Our growth patterns put us in the top 2 fastest growing churches in St. Louis. Why share all this? Because of the following principles

1. It's God. If you don't follow God, then it's labored in vein, so it's all based on God.
2. We do our part and God makes up the rest. We strive for excellence in everything, we do al we can, and God always comes through with what we can't
3. We believe in healthy thirds. 1/3 is younger, then middle aged, then senior. One third is non believers, new believers, then long time followers of Christ. We see young body pierced kids sitting next to grey haired couples at church every Sunday. A healthy church is a balanced church
4. We strive to be relevant, but form always follows function. We don't want to be to creative, where we lose the message. We always put function first, then form in our marketing, series development, Kids ministry, Youth, Visitors, etc...
