They collect a tithe of 10% of members’ income from the entire congregation. Most people accumulate less than 10% of their income as net worth annually

So yes, quite possibly they do.

    Plus, they have been around fore more than 190 years. With smart investments and only 5% growth per year, your wealth doubles over 15 years. They also own land, so with land value going up they made a lot of profit if they just rent it out.
