Lad, maybe you missed the thread I started a few days ago, but the prior at Post Falls gave a sermon this past Sunday informing the laity that Switzerland just approved plans to move forward on a $60mm new church and campus 5 miles from where they are located now. I am a pretty decent "numbers" guy. I cannot see how they can financially pull this off in the 5 years they are proposing. IC had half the attendance of St Marys and their project was $48mm.
This is insane money being spent. Who subsidizing the Society?
Yeah ... I definitely missed that one. But this facility I found there wanted 9.5 and it had that beautiful basilica chapel, and 72+ rooms for religious (I misremembered), and then it also had a long-term care facility (nursing home / assisted living) with 90+ beds that could be converted to more space for religious, a boarding school ... or, as Traditional Catholics get older, maybe they could keep using it for that? Also has a school with classrooms, a "mansion", a library, a gymnasium / stage / auditorium, multiple other buildings such as garages, a small house. This property is unreal, and NINE MILLION DOLLARS. It's been kept up with also ... so it's not like a a basket case that needs an extra 30 million of work. You couldn't build that chapel / basilica along for any money, and the $25 million being spent on the Immaculata wouldn't touch it. But you'd get that + the other 160+ rooms, library, "mansion", auditorium, garage, house, etc. for 1/3 of the price being spent on Immaculata.
And Dillwyn still have their chapel in what looks like an elementary school gym.
