From outside, the most obvious signs of damage at Pilgrim Rest Baptist Church are the windows.
Two plain glass windows are broken open. The large stained glass window is broken in places, but the rest of the windows were spared and that, says the pastor, is a blessing.
“One of the firemen told me outside, he said, ‘We tried to preserve the stained glass windows,’” Williams remarked. “Just the mere fact that they was willing to take the interest in preserving these windows. Fantastic.” Williams was told the fire was likely electrical, starting in the basement, traveling through the floor beneath the stage and up the walls.
The windows weren’t the only blessing. When he arrived Friday morning, he saw tarps covering the organ and piano to protect them from water damage.
