Small and largely irrelevant group which is unrecognised by any major Christiand denomination. Most of the sources are self-sources and those who are not don't justify an article on Wikipedia. I move for deletion Karma1998 (talk) 13:55, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I motion to keep, because it is referenced in The Detroit News, the Archdiocese of Detroit, and Aleteia. These news articles provide the argument that this group is relevant, despite its size. At that rate, some U.S. settlement articles which have only less than 100 residents should be culled by that same measure; they won't, however, because despite their seeming irrelevance, they are properly sourced through the U.S. Census Bureau. Only 2 sources are self-sourced in this article. TheLionHasSeen (talk) 14:11, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. The building may well be notable, but that doesn't mean the organisation that occupies it is notable. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:24, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
