Almost 11 years ago, Emma and I started attending Bayside church. It met at GBHS and had about 600 or so people attending every Sunday. Within a few months we had been recruited to usher (do ushers help people "ush"?)
Bayside now sees 8,000 adults or more each weekend in 5 services and I have been a head usher for about 4 years.. Next Sunday, Easter, will mark my last service as an usher and mark the start of our journey to find a new church. There are a lot of reasons - in part simply due to the size and the focus of the church. In the end it comes down to the fact that this season is over and we are starting a new one.
And life moves forward....

I loved that church.. mostly for the way it brings in young people. Obviously a "rock show" type worship is more in tune with young people... and even the speakers kept my attention, but if you really want to find a family in a church.. trying to sift through 8,000+ people is no easy task.
