and he seems to have a leadership role in his church and wants to do right. 

I'm in PA but I hail from Jersey and my mom's church is in Paterson!

I'm a church planter and ready to make the funds I need to support my family as we continue to grow the church.

A church organization may have a food bank, so will the Salvation Army, so may another organization, these organizations may or may not partner to provide food and serve clients on an application, qualification basis, ensuring people are not being over served (and abusing the entire system).

There's no way to filter the list for specific criteria (SFR, 3 beds/2 baths, etc), so I have been scrubbing the list, excluding commercial properties, bank owned properties, state and church owned properties.

For instance, in Richmond it could be Church Hill, or Jackson Ward...then you'll be able to get a profile on what the buyers look like in that area. 

It's very cluttered, and the purple carpet reminds of a church alter color (but it is very pretty).I did a quick mockup of a less cluttered room, and used Shaw brown colored pet resistant carpet.I put a mushroom colored sofa at one end and an Avocado green and rust chair at the other end.I also put in a minibar and two small (vs one big) log burners (for winter and fall).it might also be nice to have some kind of sound system in the ceiling that can hitch onto your cell phone and play your music from your phone.If you notice rather than paint a wall, I simply used a drapery to color it from end to end.Here I used a muddy looking mustard color with some checkers on it.I also toned down the white window trim to deep brown color, and put some sheers inside to make the house feel bigger.You could also use knotty pine wainscoting in some areas to break up the horizontal-ness of it.

I wholesaled a big house/church over there last year.  

Church.

Even our churches teach us that we are to obey our leaders and to obey the laws of the land.
