Responding firefighters encountered heavy flames from the roof and several additional agencies were called to assist in battling the fire.
around 5 a.m. Responding firefighters encountered heavy flames coming from the roof, so crews worked to extinguish the fire through the attic.
Fortunately, no injuries were reported, but several firefighters from different departments were called in to assist. According to the church pastor, Jonathan Fitzgerald, the cause of the fire appears to be electrical. And while the damage was severe, Fitzgerald says the church, which has been around since the 1950s, is prone to flooding, so they were in the process of relocating.
