Thanks! I thought you were implying something else. I would have said church members or attenders.

That’s my term. Worshipers, members or congregants are probably more kosher terms. But a church must reach, attract, and successfully retain those folks, whatever you call them. In that way, signage is important. Depends on the faith of course. Catholics pretty much seem to go to whatever Catholic church is in town. No need to promote the church unless there’s the competition of another Cathollic church in town. Probably ditto for synagogues. But some Protestants church-shop. It seems like less of a big deal to cross denominations and select a church by its pastors, size of congregation, facilities, services, spiritual approach, etc.

Churches have customers?

I was assuming that the original rumor was wrong–yes, it’s a dollar store but not Dollar General.

So originally this was going to be a Dollar General and is now going to be a FD. I wonder why DG pulled out?

It is perfectly legal to park on East Lake. Not ideal–it’s a narrow street. But it’s free! Glad they finally fixed the sidewalks @ the parking!

When and where? Just keep in mind that unless it’s during daylight, it will have to be on my side of town. I don’t go into Family Dollar having neighborhoods after dark!
