How can I help save a closing church?

Five concrete ways, from prayer to professional skills — none of them require you to be wealthy.

Short answer: nominate it, pray for it, follow it, give or pledge to a verified campaign, and offer your skills.

Nominate it. If a church near you is closing, listed for sale or in foreclosure, nominate it. It takes five minutes and starts triage.
Pray and follow. Every campaign page has an "I'm Praying" button and a Follow button so you hear about deadlines and milestones.
Give or pledge. Verified campaigns show exactly what has been received, pledged and what remains. Gifts run through Stripe and are recorded only when confirmed. A pledge is a commitment you fulfil later.
Volunteer. Attorneys, engineers, appraisers, contractors, fundraisers and communicators are needed on almost every rescue. Build a profile.
Share. Sharing a verified campaign with your church, family and neighbours is often what tips a rescue over its threshold.
