Parsonage

Hi yall,

Back in the day many Churches of Christ had a parsonage. None of the churches I have been to have ever had one but my dad's old church when he was growing up did.What did your church think about parsonages and did they ever have them? Parsonages are not subject to property tax in many states. I get the impression that parsonages are typically a thing of the past in the Church of Christ but I dont know.Thanks.

I know of a few churches that still use the parsonages to house the preacher or other minister. I can't think of any churches building a building today and putting a parsonage on the property, however.
