These are helping verbs to complete your sentence. Just like they are used in a simple positive sentence, similarly their usage in a negative sentence cannot be denied.

Does "go so much distance" mean "run about" in this sentence, “To revive the church, I've gone so much distance and suffered so much”? I didn't find many examples in Google about "go so much distance".
Hey Armugam, 'To go so much distance' is 'to do a lot' for anything...so your sentence actually means, "To revive the church, I've done a lot and suffered so much." Hope this satisfies your query. Regards

What are English vowels?
There are five English vowels : a,e,i,o,u. One of the most common rules with vowels is that when you are using an article before a word starting with an vowel ( for example - Education), then we use 'an' article before the word. Hope this helps.
