| When it came time for the church to tear
down the old
parsonage, they asked the local fire department to help. The
firefighters agreed to use the fire for
training. In the process, the house would be burned down. |
|
|
|
The parsonage,
prepared for demolition.
|
|
|
|
|
One more thing
worth keeping.
|
|
|
|
|
Some of the kids
just couldn't stop playing around.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then the
firefighters came, and things got serious.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The crowd was in
place ...
|
|
|
|
|
|
... including the
camera crew.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There wasn't much time to let people know
that the parsonage would be burned, but a crowd still gathered to watch
the fire.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The best seats
were well back, away from the flames and smoke.
|
|
|
There is a time to tear down and a time to
build.
(from Ecclesiastes 3:3)
