The City of Orange is where the Crystal Cathedral got its start when they first started meeting in a local drive-in theater.  Today another Orange church had a drive-in experience (from the OC Register):

A woman suffered moderate injuries after she crashed her vehicle into a church Thursday morning, authorities said.

Police got a call shortly after 10 a.m. regarding a crash at the Heritage Christian Fellowship, 7436 E. Chapman Ave., near Newport Boulevard, authorities said.

Officers found a Toyota Camry driven by a woman crashed through a glass door and window, Orange police Sgt. Dan Adams said.

Turns out there really isn't room in the sanctuary for parking, so next week they'll have to leave their cars outside like usual.

If the church doesn't own that building they'll find out how good their liability coverage is, especially if the driver's insurance is insufficient.  Many policies for tenants exclude coverage for the building they're renting.

A church's nightmare:

A 1-year-old boy is dead after he drowned in an Indianapolis church’s baptismal pool Wednesday.

Indianapolis police said the boy — identified as Juan Cardenas in several reports — went missing for a short period, presumably having wandered off from the supervision of childcare staff members at the Praise Fellowship Assembly of God. There, eight employees monitor between 30 and 45 children.

The child wasn’t discovered missing until his therapist arrived for a session and couldn’t find him. The daycare employees then found him floating in two-feet of water in the pool. He was transported in critical condition to St. Vincent’s Hospital where he was later declared dead.

Whatever the church's liability limits are, they're going to use all of it...and probably then some.
