2,008 ads from 36 churches in the Meta Ad Library, 825 running now.
36 churches have 2,008 ads in the Meta Ad Library between them, and 825 of those were running when we read it on October 5, 2026. Below is a page of creative from each, what formats carry the category, and how long the ads that work stay up.
Churches are the one advertiser here offering something free, so they cannot compete on the offer and compete on the first visit instead - what to wear, where to park, what the kids do - because that worry is what keeps a newcomer home.
The library count is everything a brand has published on Meta. The active count is what was delivering at the read. The ratio between them is the account’s posture: a large library with a small active share is a brand cycling hard, and one where nearly everything is live is running a small curated set.

Meta Ad Library, read October 5, 2026. Library and active counts are Meta’s own. 35 of these churches have enough creative on file for a page of their own.
video leads at 61 percent of the 618 creatives read here, with static at 22 percent and carousel at 18. Learn more carries 40 percent of the calls to action.
The median creative here ran 18 days and the longest was still up at 540. Run length is the closest thing to a public performance signal these libraries publish, because nobody keeps paying to deliver an ad that is not working. How that compares with every other industry is in the Meta ad creative benchmarks.

Video ads lead among churches. Start there, and test the second format against it rather than spreading spend across every placement at once.
An offer, a launch or a limited drop gives the ad a job beyond awareness. 5 percent of the church ads here lead with a price in the ad.
Take the hook, the first frame and the offer structure from the ads that run longest, then make them yours. A copied ad looks like the original; a copied structure looks like a winner.
The median church ad here stayed up 18 days. Give a new ad a week of spend before you judge it, then retire what is not getting results and write the next version of what is. The advertisers with the most live ads are the ones testing the most.
