As I mentioned in the box score for this weekend, this was the first time in Granger history that we had over 5,000 people in attendance for 4 weekends in a row. For you numbers people, I thought you might be interested in this look back at other times in our history when we’ve hit 5,000 on successive weekends:

  • The prior record of 3 weekends in a row over 5,000 was set in February 2004 during the "Pop Spirituality" series. That was the only time during 2004 that we had successive weekends over 5,000.
  • The first time we hit 5,000 in attendance was Easter 2003. That was also the first weekend of "Matrix Revealed." The very next weekend we were also over 5,000.
  • We also had back-to-back weekends over 5,000 in November 2003 during the "Parental Guidance" series.
  • The only other time we had back-to-back weekends over 5,000 was earlier this year for Palm Sunday and Easter–the beginning of "Desperate Households."

It’s pretty exciting to see the momentum we’re experiencing before the expanded auditorium even opens. This current series definitely has a good beat.
