Well, apparently there were expectations attached, at least. Like, that they'd move in there and raise a happy little family in that house for generations to come, or some crap. Expectations are just a non-binding form of conditions.
If it had been pure altruism and generosity, the church would have had no problem with the couple using the house however they wanted to use it, including selling it and using the proceeds to skip town. But there WERE strings attached--as you can see by the hurt feelings on the part of the church.
