Sacred Buildings | Nathan + Elizabeth Lott


I get a lot of “can I pick your brain” calls when it comes to old houses of worship. While I’m always glad to chat, you may find the answer to your question on either the CONSULTANCIES or SUPPORT + RESOURCE page.

If my spouse or I can be of help, here’s a little info about us.

Clergy Coaching Calls, HTC Consulting, and more

I have worked for or with churches since 1998. From cleaning up a flooded fellowship hall with a shop vac to learning about plaster efflorescence as walls and ceilings fell, I have a few tricks up the sleeve of my clergy vestments. I want to help churches make informed decisions, and I love supporting clergy as they navigate all that entails.
