Church Construction:
When the House Church has 10 baptized adult members, it becomes Worship Group. As the membership grows to 25 it qualifies to have a temporary shed which is built with the help of the local believers. This type of building is called Type 1 church.
The necessity of better church building arises when the membership grows to 50. To build a church, a piece of land with minimum 2,400 square (60*40) feet area is needed. Local believers donate land for construction. If there is no such provision, lands are bought.
The church believers fill the church construction form and send as per procedure. When the land is registered legally in the name of the Society, the form will be accepted and church construction will be initiated as per the availability of funds.
For a worship group with 50 members, Semi Pakka church, called as Type 2 church, will be constructed. To build a Semi Pakka church having asbestos or Tiles or tin sheets as its roof, in 600 square feet, costs Rs. 2.50 lakhs. The local believers extend their voluntary help of watering and manual laboring during the construction.
When the church membership crosses 100, a permanent structure is constructed with RCC roofing, two side rooms- one for pastor and another as store room, separate toilets for ladies and gents, baptism tank. This Type 3 church costs Rs. 4.50 lakhs.
