Visitors were required to wear masks and socially distance inside the church’s arena, once home of the Houston Rockets.
Osteen told those in attendance that he had missed seeing them in person. Under city guidelines, about 4,000 people were allowed to attend each service, Sunday, one-fourth of the 16,000 seat capacity.
