raising funds

A small church needs to replace its building. The question arises: how is it to be financed? One person says all that is needed is to pray and trust God to provide. Another says to pray, trust and seek to raise funds. Is fundraising common sense or a lack of faith? What are the best ways of fundraising to enable the church to raise six times its monthly income? Comments and experiences would be most welcome.
