The Bible does say a great number of priests were converted to the faith, and it's possible that they converted entire congregations with existing buildings.

But, I never see any reference at all to a "building" program in the book of Acts.
And bear with me for playing the DA with you. This is really a topic that I'm vasillating on, and have been for some time.
