A letter and plan filed by My Father's House Church International is one of several proposals offered to the cathedral’s board of directors, which was reorganized this week. On Saturday, Crystal Cathedral spokesman John Charles said he did not believe the proposal was “a viable plan.”
My Father's House Church broadcasts a twice-a-week program called “Latter Day Kings,” which officials say draws at least 10,000 viewers. The church would also set up an escrow fund to repay the cathedral’s debts, using 75% of donations received monthly.
Their $50 million depends on future, yet-realized donations. Tod's cash offer trumps that.
I'm still on the side of Tod getting his cathedral this way. I have seen the pictures of other churches built by the chosen architect and they're monstrosities. At least this is (a) a monstrosity that has become blended with the Orange County landscape, and (b) cheaper than building to spec.
