Notre Dame Cathedral?
I know the flying buttresses were added to stabilize the walls, the famous bells would have called many to worship, and I just verified it was medeivel era, though I would have incorrectly guessed early Renaissance.

Notre Dame Cathedral?

Not the Notre Dame Cathedral. I'd probably assume Renaissance too.
That is correct!Leaning tower of Pisa? It was constructed as a freestanding bell tower for the nearby Cathedral
I called to worship - It's a bell tower to call to worship
Medieval fellowship - created in medieval time period
Unstable foundations - shallow foundation (about 3 metres) on soft alluvial clay, sand, and shells, which compressed unevenly under the tower’s weight
Saved by innovation - tower was saved from falling over by modern day innovations
OK here goes.... limerick-style this time! 
There once was a worldly nation
Who wanted to improve their station.
They got all fired up
But ended abrupt
When it all got lost in translation.

For the fun part of your limerick, I'm gonna guess Pompeii, for fired up.OK here goes.... limerick-style this time!

But Babel is probably it with lost in translation.
@PopClick da winna!
The "all fired up" line referred to baking/firing bricks to build the tower instead of using stones.
Definitely NOT a reference to people roasting in a pyroclastic flow, you ghoul!
Keep your tarts at "home is where the heart is"?
Actually, I'm gonna guess the "hearth" (home fireplace/stove) or in modern times called the kitchen.
Does this have anything to do with Balaam and his ass, Balak, seven altars, a bullock and a ram on every altar, three times... ?
You got it! It is indeed Balaam. Impressive!
You said go so I went - God told Balaam to go with the men taking him to Moab King.
But so foolish their request - Moab King was going to ask Balaam to curse Israel.
You still nearly cut me down - Even though God said go with them, an Angel of the Lord blocked Balaam's way and said if he hadn't turned away he would have killed him.
Except for my ride - Balaam's donkey turned off the road twice and finally laid down.
I would have lost my hide - Angel of the Lord said had the donkey not done that he would have killed Balaam.
Even 42 would never have been enough - Moab King sacrificed 7 bulls and 7 rams and asked Balaam to curse the Israelites, and repeated that 2 more times.
To change what I must repeat - Balaam repeated the same basic message after each try,
that he cannot curse who God has blessed.
Gary said ass!!!
I assert that, assuredly, this is an assault on the assembly. I need assistance to assiduously assess the situation.
I reduced the KJV text down to a list of words that are found only once in the entire Bible text. (using a case-sensitive comparison of words)
I removed all punctuation except the hyphen (and, including any characters after any apostrophe) - such that, for the sake of this effort, hyphens count as characters in any word that contains them - meaning, any word that contains them counts as a separate word from the same alphabetic characters without them.
Out of the 4501 words that are only found once in the Bible:
~ 20 are in all-uppercase letters
~ 2054 begin with an uppercase letter (3 of these have more than one uppercase letter in the word)
~ 2427 are in lowercase letters only
Four of the words that begin with an uppercase letter (with the rest being lowercase) are all found in 5 consecutive verses of scripture - each of the four words being the first word of one of the 5 verses. (The first word of one of the 5 verses is not capitalized.)
All four words in all-lowercase letters also exist in scripture. However, we are only concerned with the only-once-each capitalized occurrences of the words.
What book, chapter, and verse range are these words found?

If you need more words that begin with those same three letters - I have here a list of 33 words in the Bible and 142 common words.Gary said ass!!!

(20 words are in both lists.)
