Given the extreme wealth in the bay area, I am astonished you find it astonishing. Billionaires and multi millionaires would have funded these churches. Most churches and other religious organisations run on a tight budget and deter important costs like building maintenance because of lack of funds.

I have seen crumbling Catholic churches, and I have seen the Vatican Meusum. Two extremes of wealth.
