We are officially a church. (Huzzah, yeay, and all that.) All it takes to officially be a church is to declare it so. We are a nonprofit org with full protected status, because that is the default state of churches.

Official paperwork seems to involve incorporating, which I Do Not Wish To Do, in part because we are not a business. Other paperwork would be filing papers with the IRS; that's waiting for, oh, a few hours of playing with phrasing, and someone with legalese comprehension to check for loopholes
