Our church caught fire early this morning and from the looks of it, was totally destroyed. I think I am still in shock and that it will take a while for reality to really sink in. The top photo was taken this morning and the one below is a photo of the church before the fire.
We have been members of St. Matthew's for about eleven years and both of our boys were baptized there. There are a lot of older parishioners who have been members their whole lives and I know this loss will be devastating for them. These are people with a strong faith, however, so I know that God will be with them and we will all make it through this tragedy.
This is such a heartbreak to all of us. I'm still so devastated.
