Lakewood Church IPO Set For Early Next Year
Finance · Dec 28, 2017 · BabylonBee.com

HOUSTON, TX - America's largest church has filed for an initial public offering which will take place early next year, Lakewood executives as well as a spokesman for the Securities and Exchange Commission confirmed Thursday.

The church will trade on the Nasdaq under the ticker FAVR.

Boasting $80 million in annual revenue from its heavily-trafficked retail operation and lucrative television business - as well as huge profit margins rarely seen in a company of its size - the ministry's focus on furthering its explosive growth immediately solicited excitement from institutional and individual investors alike.

A Lakewood spokesman has confirmed Lakewood CEO Joel Osteen's intention to ring the Nasdaq's opening bell on the day of the IPO.
