Ja, das klingt nach einer sehr praktischen Hilfe. Bei uns im Chor haben wir letztes Jahr schon gehört, wie schwer es für die kleine Mission in Potsdam war, als sie vom Gemeindesaal in eine richtige Kirche umgezogen sind – die Miete hat sich fast verdoppelt. Gut, dass die Unterstützung über drei Jahre abnimmt, so können sie sich langsam steigern. Ich schicke den Link gleich an unseren Priester weiter.
