Charisma News is reporting that three members of the extended Schuller family have lost their jobs at the troubled Crystal Cathedral as things go from bad to worse.
The Roman Catholic Diocese of Orange, Calif., has purchased the iconic Crystal Cathedral for $57.5 million, but faces a major challenge in retrofiting the building for use as a Catholic cathedral.
The embodiment of suburban Protestantism, you’ll recall, was sold to the Roman Catholic Diocese of Orange, Calif., for a cool $57.5 million as the church grapples with bankruptcy and a nasty family feud. Founder Robert Schuller’s daughter, Sheila Schuller Coleman, is now leading the dwindling congregation.
From Charisma:
Schuller’s daughter, Gretchen Penner, producer of the Hour of Power, and her husband Jim Penner, the show’s executive producer, were both dismissed.
Jim Coleman, husband of Senior Pastor Sheila Schuller Coleman, Schuller’s other son-in-law, also lost his job as director of creative services.
