Beyonce is now the proud owner of her very own church.
The “Formation” singer has reportedly bought a church in New Orleans.
The attractive 7,500 sq. ft house of God was built in the 1900s, and the location is near Beyonce’s sister Solange’s home.
The church has apparently been out of use for awhile because its members have passed away.
However, it is unclear if this is exactly what the pop icon paid.
In fact, both the Beyonce and Solange already own residential properties in the city, so perhaps this divine acquisition is an investment in the community.
It’s not the first time that Beyonce has hit headlines over a church. Earlier this month, Grace Cathedral in San Francisco held it’s first ‘Beyonce Mass’, with the service including her solo songs and Destiny’s Child anthems.
The service included a sermon about liberation struggle and featured scripture readings by black women, readings from a speech by the civil rights leader Ella Baker, and singing along to Beyonce songs.
Some songs that were played included “Listen,” “Freedom,” “Flaws and All,” and “I Was Here,” and “Survivor” by Destiny’s Child. Reverend Yolanda Norton, a San Francisco Theological Seminary professor, delivered the sermon and helped organize the service.
