Good Shepard Lutheran Church has sold it’s old building, and as the Washington Post reports, they’ve found a purchaser:
The Tzu Chi Foundation, a [Buddhist] religious organization that performs charitable work worldwide, scooped up Good Shepherd’s facility for $4.2 million and will move in after the church settles into its new building, under construction farther north in Reston.
Sometime in the Winter of 2008 the Tzu Chi Foundation will move to 1516 Moorings Dr, near Lake Anne Plaza. The facilitie’s sanctuary holds 224 seats and 8 classrooms, and according to spokesman Clara Cheng it was a hard find, “There’s not many churches on the market. To find the right size, the right location, was not an easy job.”
Previously Tzu Chi operated out of a Rockville office park. Good Shepard will move to a facility with more than double it’s current capacity at a lot near Reston Avenue and Route 7.
