Overview
Mission
Meetinghouse Revival formed in 2021 as a direct action to save Wesley Chapel CME church. However, we have learned that we can preserve a building but ultimately it takes a community to revive it. Nothing pulls people together better than good storytelling. While preserving Wesley Chapel remains a critical part of our mission, we have since expanded our efforts to more broadly safeguard Corsicanas Black history by collecting and sharing these dynamic stories with the larger community.
What it reported doing in 2025
Program services refers to all Meetinghouse Revival activities dedicated to preserving the personal accounts and architectural materials surrounding local African American sacred sites. In 2025, expenses in this category concerned the maintenance, upkeep, and preservation of the Wesley Chapel CME building, including building insurance, lawn care, utilities to the property, and professional services and permitting to ready the site for construction.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
