My mom once sang that song to a priest in the middle of a heated meeting. Shortly after that, he threatened excommunication and we became Methodists. That story always makes me proud of my mom, who was terrified when faced with authoritative figures, but was principled enough to know when it was necessary to speak up.
My dream has always been to take a building like this and make it into a home. I think of all the memories that are lost to churchs being abandoned. It has so much more life in it.
