Does anyone know who owns it and if there is any additional property that is part of the parcel, that the church resides on? If so, I may be interested in buying it. Please advise!

This is sad, Man. You'd think this place would still be used for services, although its condition is critical. It's a little better in this photo, but is much worse today in 2014. The steeple is worse and its driveway is nothing but dirt (muddy and soil). Still, people I live in the same neighborhood with take care it by trimming the weeds and overgrowth out so anyone can go in without getting hurt, I guess.
