  • i understand people being upset

    but no one was hurt....

  • i feel so sad.. thats my church... and i will not be able to even go in there... i love that church... :(...plus i know that woman that was takling.

  • Now another fire at All Saints-St Anthony's in Bridgeport. Times are strange. Pray psalm 23 .

  • Just view it as another form of "change." Rebuild that sucker, that's what God really wanted. Right?

  • such a shame that this had to happen to such a beautiful building

  • So sad :(

  • Don't get me wrong, I still believe in God and the true embodiment of Christ. But religious institutions to me and many others are the work of very dark individuals. But I want to commend you to for not being rude. Its good to know there are people who will still entertain a thought, without accepting it. Peace and Freedom to you.

  • I have to commend, erikarabin8924, your second part of your comment and your insightfulness.  Thank you for that reminder that the church building is simply temporal and a structure. Sometimes it is easy to lose sight of what is really important. It's the life and spirit in the Church that is it's life and spirit!

  • Now the inside of the church is going to make us feel cold.

  • Praise God no one appears to have been hurt. Rebuilding seems to be an ongoing process in this battle weary Church. I pray that the Lord make their ways straight in the rebuilding.
