Enrichment Notes

Major rating correction: explicit CBF affiliation justifies denominational black tier; cultural/gender downgraded to red by denominational default.

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.
