Summary

Description
English: Abundant Life in Christ Ministries, 986 Grant Street, Buffalo, New York, June 2020. Erected in 1908 to a design by architect Max Beierl, the architecture of the building is simple, but - with features such as a raking corbel table underlying the front roof gable, a recurring motif of round-arched double windows with an oculus in between, and an entrance flanked by a pair of columns with stylized Corinthian capitals - a textbook example of the Romanesque Revival style. The interior sports an open floor plan thanks to the strong steel trusses holding up the ceiling. The building started out as St. Elizabeth's Roman Catholic Church, a parish that was founded in 1906 to serve Buffalo's Hungarian-American community: although the bulk of them lived in Black Rock in the vicinity of the church, the fact that it was the only place in Western New York where Mass was said in the Hungarian language meant that parishioners arrived from as far away as Lackawanna and Tonawanda in some cases. Indeed, the church continued holding at least one Hungarian-language service a week right up to the time of the parish's 2007 merger with Assumption as part of the "Journey in Faith and Grace" consolidation program. Abundant Life in Christ Ministries is the building's current occupant, an African-American Pentecostal congregation that purchased the place in 2010.
