Crystal Cathedral Congregation Set for 2013 Move

Submitted by webadmin on

The congregation of Crystal Cathedral, a mega-church once famous for its "Hour of Power" broadcasts, will move to a new location next year under a deal with the Roman Catholic diocese buying its glass-walled house of worship, Reuters reported yesterday. The Southern California congregation's move was expected, under the terms of an agreement that saw ownership of the Crystal Cathedral property transferred in a $57.5 million bankruptcy sale the two sides entered into late in 2011. The financial woes that befell Crystal Cathedral during a drop in attendance and donations was followed in March by the resignation of televangelist Robert Schuller from the church board in a monetary dispute.
