You won't believe these 10 names belong to real churches

The church is definitely a sacred place of worship. So, it makes sense that the name would reflect this right?

Well, not all churches have figured this out yet, hence this hilarious strange names.

Here are 10 strange and funny names of real churches.

1. Barking Methodist Church in East London: Who wants to attend a church that barks?

2. The Five Precious Wounds Catholic Church, Stonebridge: This is still from London. All we can say is ‘why?’

3. Custom House Baptist Church: We hear this and what comes to mind are Customs officers. We can't help but wonder it is a church for just custom officers. This is the only explanation for why a church would be called a ‘Custom House.’ This is also from London.

Let's bring it home. These remaining seven names are from our very own motherland, Nigeria.

4. Laboratory Church of God: What? Why?

According to the Newfrontiers, “The name that you choose does make a difference."

“For many people, it is the very first impression they will get of your church, and the way they perceive you (and even whether or not they decide to rock up and visit you) will be decided in part by the impression this name makes on them.”

Churches really need to take this listen when it comes to choosing their names.
