Size and Facility
Southland Christian Church is considered a megachurch. It is one of Kentucky's largest churches, averaging 10,000-12,000 in attendance per weekend in 10 services—five in Jessamine County, three in Lexington, and two in Danville. The 115-acre (0.47 km2) sprawling Jessamine County campus includes multiple buildings, structures and parking lots. The main sanctuary can be converted into two gymnasiums. The church also has a substantial ministry to the poor through its Helping Through Him ministry, including an on-site warehouse.

Famous quotes containing the words size and/or facility:
“One writes of scars healed, a loose parallel to the pathology of the skin, but there is no such thing in the life of an individual. There are open wounds, shrunk sometimes to the size of a pin-prick but wounds still. The marks of suffering are more comparable to the loss of a finger, or the sight of an eye. We may not miss them, either, for one minute in a year, but if we should there is nothing to be done about it.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
“Virtue rejects facility to be her companion.... She requires a craggy, rough and thorny way.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
