Yep, they're focusing on the right temple.
Nothing like letting the news advertise for ya.

I love the concept; it's great. But I have one question - how DO they pay the rent or any other expenses if 100% of the income goes to help others in need? Just curious.

As far as I can tell, they just pay for 1 thing, which is a "small rent fee" for the highschool. They pay for nothing else, and give their offerings to those that really need it. As the news man said, most churches have nice buildings they dump quite a bit of money into(offices furniture etc.), not this church. The way I see it, this church will grow a lot. Somehow, I feel they probably dont have a long list "contract" of requirements to fit in their church membership, like some.
Here is a follow up news "advertisement" for them once again(separating them from "most churches", - per the news man).

I notice that the pastor said that they give away their "weekend offerings." Maybe some folks give outside of the "weekend offerings" and what they give is enough to meet expenses like rent and anything else. This would allow the money received in "weekend offerings" to be distributed to the needy.

I wondered the same. And how does the pastor eat?
