Flatirons Community Church is a large non-denominational church in Lafayette, Colorado, a northern suburb of Denver, Colorado, USA. The church was launched in July 1994 as Boulder Creek Community Church, with a name change to Coal Creek Community Church in December 1994, and another name change to Flatirons Community Church in 1997. The church had about 200 in attendance by 1999, 1,700 in attendance in 2002, 7,200 in attendance in 2008, and in 2013 had an average weekly attendance of 13,000. The church did not immediately start construction on the land it had purchased. The Lafayette City Council approved a site plan for the new church building in November 2008, but in November 2009 the church again ran decided to change some of the plans. At that time, at a town meeting to rubberstamp the building plan changes, some local residents of nearby communities objected to the proposed building with 1,000 parking spaces and an auditorium to seat 3,000 people on the basis that the roads could not accommodate the traffic, which would disrupt their neighborhoods. Also store owners near the existing site also objected, concerned about loss of shoppers. In April 2010 the church was considering an alternative plan to move to two large vacant buildings in a mall across the street from their current location. The church features modern worship music alongside a Biblically-based spoken message during a typical weekend service. The music is not limited to worship songs, but includes songs by popular bands such as the Foo Fighters, Black Eyed Peas and recently Pink. By 2010, weekend attendance was ranging from 8,500 to 10,000 people, with a record attendance of over 11,300 people on 22 January 2010.〔 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Flatirons Community Church」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
