Nancy -

CPA funds can be used for religious buildings & even restoring belfry chimes.  You can search the database of CPA funds used for religious buildings at https://www.communitypreservation.org/databank/projectsdatabase/access under Historic Structures to find examples of religious buildings from across the state. A wide variety of historic structures owned by non-profits are eligible for CPA funds.

MHC provides matching restoration funds for religious structures, among the many types of buildings eligible for their restoration grants.

Does anyone know of any grants or other things that churches who reside in a historic district could apply for for support?

Many thanks.
