2011 a record year for church foreclosures
by Tom Gallagher on Mar. 09, 2012

    NCR Today

The church foreclosure report is largely focused on Protestant churches that have been foreclosed. If the number of Catholic churches that have been shut down by bishops and chancery officials during this same time period, the number would be even higher. Closed Catholic churches are effectively ones that have undergone an internal foreclosure for the same reasons the Protestant churches have been foreclosed by commercial banks: no money, diminishing congregations, fixed-to-increasing maintenance and utility costs, etc.

Here's the Reuters story:

        2011 a record year for church foreclosures
        Churches hit by credit bubble, some devalued
        Churches faulting, struggling with "balloon" payouts
        Banks say church foreclosure last resort

    Banks are foreclosing on America's churches in record numbers as lenders increasingly lose patience with religious facilities that have defaulted on their mortgages, according to new data.

    The surge in church foreclosures represents a new wave of distressed property seizures triggered by the 2008 financial crash, analysts say, with many banks no longer willing to grant struggling religious organizations forbearance.

    Since 2010, 270 churches have been sold after defaulting on their loans, with 90 percent of those sales coming after a lender-triggered foreclosure, according to the real estate information company CoStar Group.

    In 2011, 138 churches were sold by banks, an annual record, with no sign that these religious foreclosures are abating, according to CoStar. That compares to just 24 sales in 2008 and only a handful in the decade before.

@Jenna

Betul, Detroit memang sebuah fenomena, dimana saat kejayaan automotive Amerika, Detroit adalah kota yang sangat ramai, sementara saat ini, Detroit nyaris ditinggalkan oleh penduduknya, perlahan tapi pasti menjadi kota mati.

Kondisi seperti itu mau tidak mau berimbas kepada gereja, dimana dari link yang anda berikan, memang beberapa sepertinya harus ditutup, karena beberapa sebab. Sementara beberapa paroki akan digabungkan dan diikutkan kepada paroki yang lain, walau gerejanya tidak ditutup.

Thanks anyway dengan informasi anda. Mari kita doakan agar gereja gereja bisa bertahan menghadapi gelombang dan badai, serta tidak kehilangan iman.

dengan komisi 10%, jika memiliki jemaat kaya, maka sudah dipastikan hidup sang pimpinan juga terjamin...hehe.

Hanya saja, jika kita melihat topik, di Indonesia masih belum ada gereja yang bangkrut....

di daerahku sudah 3  gereja TUTUP. (habis jemaatnya). Sisa 1 gereja dengan 5 jemaat. Pendeta hidup dari memberikan pemberkatan nikah dengan gantinya uang berkat (banyak dari luar kota, 5 jut s/d 25 juta) agar surat dari catatan sipil bisa diterbitkan.
Mau Poligami ke daerahku, dijamin beres.
