Enrichment Notes
Men's Ministry explicitly listed on website, contradicting existing has_mens_ministry: false flag — worth noting.
These are the URLs consulted to arrive at this church's scoring. Score-note claims are synthesized from homepage content, denominational directories, and public statements of faith at the time of review. Church websites change frequently; we're progressively adding Internet Archive snapshots to prevent link rot.
