 The church has twice come under [[Charles Montgomery Burns]]' control. The first time occurred due to Bart and Homer accidentally destroying the Church using a rocket they made with the help of {{ap|Gary|nerd}}, {{ap|Doug|nerd}} and {{ap|Benjamin|nerd}} to beat the [[Flanders Family|Flanders']] rocket. Nibbles the Hamster, the pilot, lost control and ejected, sending the rocket on a collision course into the Church. The Church Council got together and realized that they couldn't afford to repair the damage. Mr. Burns offered to repair the church in return for running the church. The council, though reluctant, was left without a choice and [[Lindsay Naegle]] was left in charge of renovations. Lindsay and Burns commercialized the church by putting up advertisements inside the church, include a neon [[Jesus]] and a [[Lard Lad]] statue. Inside there were also impulse stalls, such as a money changer and a novelty ''Last Supper'' cutout picture, which gave Church goers a chance to ''be'' Jesus. The seats were upgraded to extra large and a jumbotron was installed with a "God Cam". The sermons were also affected, which included advertisements and commercial sermon takers. The commercialization of the Church service led to [[Lisa]] converting to Buddhism.<ref name="SLF" />
-The second time was again due to money shortages, with Mr. Burns sponsoring the Church in a scheme to help his [[Will There Ever be a Rainbow?|book]] sales. He replaced the stained glass windows with himself and added taco bars to the pews. As well as this, he gradually takes over sermons, showing commercials for his [[Springfield Nuclear Power Plant|power plant]] and other advertisements. He also replaced the Bible with his autobiography, planning on turning Church into a book club. This caused [[Ned Flanders]] to leave the Church. Burns then developed a plan to become Pope and unlock the Vatican's riches, not realizing that the church was Protestant and not Catholic.<ref name="IBWT"/>

 The church once fell into the ownership of [[Homer Simpson]], who won the deed to the Church and converted the church into his personal home, desecrating it in the process.<ref>"[[Pray Anything]]"</ref>
