How does a congregation of 500 people raise $1.2 million for architecture?

The walls were becoming unstable, and the congregation couldn't raise the money to repair the structure.

The decision was made to construct a new church, and the congregation raised funds.

Once the congregation had raised half of the £900 required, he would donate the rest.

Groundbreaking took place in October 2007, and by late 2009 the congregation had raised almost $12 million towards the construction.

The congregation raised funds and Woods was again contracted as architect.

So far, the congregation has raised $59,000 for the first phase, the steeple repair.

The congregation, which now has about 2,400 members, has recently raised over £6m.

By the fall of 1882, the congregation had raised enough money to build a church.

The 150-family congregation raised $300,000 to keep their church looking unpretentious.
