MEDWAY, Mass. (AP) - Lightning has struck a historic Massachusetts church, damaging its roof and destroying its steeple.
The Medway Community Church was hit by a lightning bolt Thursday morning as fierce thunderstorms rolled through the area. Flames engulfed the steeple and charred the roof. No injuries have been reported.
Firefighters say they saved the rest of the church, which dates to 1814.
Associate pastor Carl Schultz promises that Sunday worship services will be held inside the church or on its front lawn.
