Irish Grove Church Burns...

[impeccablesimon]

Last night I stood outside in the freezing rain to watch the church I was christened in burn to the ground. In case you were wondering, Dear Readers, no this was not a planned burn

Wow. Sorry to hear it.

Yeah this Holiday season wasn't the best, but there's always next year, right? :)

Agreed! I never push religion on others, but the fact that this small rural church was packed every Wednesday for youth group makes me especially sad.

Um... holy shit.

Your life is oddly epic, man.

Now you see the sheer power my memoir holds.

I just need a good editor/grammatical stylist. I have one in mind, but I will be compelled to pay her handsomely...so this project needs a green light soon.

Oh, I am so sorry. I can imagine it's quite a punch in the gut.

Even days after the fire I still have so many emotions that I cannot express...but mostly anger and fear for my new found loss of faith. I hope it will return soon, but we'll just have to see.

I remember the church I went to burned down when I was small. It was pretty devastating. Like you we lived practically on top of it, so it was especially traumatic.

Yeah life can be rough...especially when our past is destroyed by something out of control.
