According to reports, Beyonce recently purchased a rather large church in New Orleans. The church is said to be about 7,500 square feet. Although it is unclear how much she actually paid, the facility was listed at $850,000.

The church was reportedly built in the early 1900s. It has not been in use in recent years due to a number of it's members passing away. Her plans for the building are not yet known but it can potentially facilitate single and multi-family apartment homes or be renovated and kept as a church.

Beyonce's sister Solange and her husband reportedly live near the church. The purchase kicks off what will be a busy summer For Queen Bey. She'd also heading out on the On The Run II tour along with husband Jay-Z.

It's been reported that Destiny's Child will also be joining her on tour. She definitely gives her fans their money's worth when she hits the stage stage. So I f you can't make it to the "church of Beyonce," I imagine a concert is the next best thing.
