2008. >> when the storm came, it toppled that steeple over. >> reporter: after moving around for 18 months, the church finally reopened as the higher ground empowerment center. >> it was just horrible. but, boy, thank god we carried through that. >> i knew once we got back in the sanctuary, people would come. >> reporter: but the church did lose members. burdened with more debt, it faced another upheaval, possible foreclosure. >> have you heard of a church that was heading into foreclosure before? >> no. this year has been very shocking to me. i believe that the banks are in business to make money, and understandably so. but when it comes down to a church, i think they need to look at it and work with them to ensure that that church stays in that community. >> hundreds of churches have faced foreclosure in the last two years. something that was once unheard >> i know many of you have been stretching yourselves right
