The question is what to do with unused churches? The ECUSA and the RC have so many empty churches and the CofE does as well, but will they allow the orthodox to use them? I think not.

The glory that once dwelt within those walls has long since departed. Ichabod. Let the edifies of stone and glass be sold at auction to the highest bidder. Why this obsession with buildings when what we should be about is the reaching of souls? The Church is NOT a building made with hands. She is a Bride - a living organism composed of people (living stones)indwelt by the Holy Ghost whose delight is to love as our Lord Jesus Christ himself did by example, and to obey His righteous commands. Worship the Lord of Heaven and Earth for He is enthroned upon the praises of His people. Lift up your voices and sing! Rejoice! Give thanks! Shout! Dance! Please have done with material concerns.
