GARDEN GROVE, Calif. (AP) - The California megachurch founded by the Rev. Robert H. Schuller is pulling its weekly "Hour of Power" broadcast off some TV stations and taking other measures to offset a nearly $8 million drop in revenue.
Officials at the Crystal Cathedral declined to name the cities where the program will be cut because station managers have not yet been notified.
The 10,000-member church will also cancel this year's "Glory of Easter" pageant, which attracts thousands of visitors and is a regional holiday staple along with the church's "Glory of Christmas" show.
Spokesman Mike Nason says the Crystal Cathedral's revenue dropped 27 percent from roughly $30 million in 2008 to $22 million in 2009. Church leaders blame the decline on the struggling U.S. economy.
