Easter Morning Fire Damages Church

An Easter morning fire heavily damaged a Wilson County church. Members of the Deans Chapel Church on Bloomery Road found their church in flames Sunday morning. It took crews from four departments to put out the blaze. Officials think a wall-mounted heater might have played a role in the fire. Members spent Sunday salvaging items from the church, including the pulpit and pews. The church owns another building in Zebulon. They plan to hold worship services there next Sunday.
