Crystal cathedral campus

Chapman University has upped its bid for the bankrupt Crystal Cathedral to $59 million, almost $2 million more than the Roman Catholic Diocese of Orange, court documents filed Wednesday show.

The Garden Grove property has become the subject of a a bidding war between the university, which would like the use it as a satellite campus, and the diocese, which would like to use the church as its cathedral.

A hearing to decide on a buyer for the church founded by the Rev. Robert H. Schuller is scheduled at 1:30 p.m. Thursday in Santa Ana.
