“Whatever comes out of this will be better than before.” Those are the words of the Rev. Dr. James Gray, following a devastating fire at Pleasant Zion Baptist Church in Dundalk, the church he pastors.
He’s assured the Lord allowed it for a reason, and equally assured that “the Lord has something good in store.”
Rev. Gray has been pastor for 41 years at the church that was established in 1899 and is not discouraged by the holes in the ceiling and even that the center is completely demolished.
“The frame is still standing,” he said. He’s spending his time making plans for Sunday’s worship and following activities.
Anyone who wants to offer assistance can visit the church’s website at pzbc.org.
