Furnace fixed, church back in sanctuary


Font size: [A] [A] [A]

To the editor: I am writing concerning the church I pastor in Mount Carmel, Zion Primitive Methodist Church on Market Street.

Rumors have been circulating that our church has no money, therefore, we are meeting at the parsonage next door.

The reason we have been meeting in the parsonage is that our furnace broke and we had no heat. I can now say we have heat, our furnace is fixed and our worship service for this Sunday and following ones will be in our church building.

I want to thank our people for their patience and giving so that we can meet on Sunday in our beautiful sanctuary. Praise God we are alive and well.

The Rev. Robert F. Smith

Pastor

Zion Primitive Methodist Church

Mount Carmel
