Firefighters battled a blaze that started at Mt. Calvary Baptist Church in Clayton Wednesday morning. http://www.wral.com/news/news_briefs/story/5091135/
This is the church where my kids attend AWANAs. I was just told that it looks like a total loss. It was intentionally set. No one was hurt. There was a lot of vandalism as well. Their fellowship hall, which is a separate building, was also vandalized. There's a little more info than WRAL's story and a good picture here: http://abclocal.go.com/wtvd/story?section=news/local&id=6798547
North Jersey might be hell but South Jersey (where I'm from) is actually a nice place to live!! Hey is this the church where I always see deer right next to it?? I forget the name of the road...is it Amelia Church maybe??
Actually, the church is on Barber Mill Rd, just down from the BP station at its intersection with Hwy 42 W. It's also the location for West Clayton 1 Precinct elections.
Police and FBI agent asking questions and handing out fliers on Dairy Rd. concerning Church fire in Barber Mill. I asked him what was going on and he said that it has been set on fire 5 times. The last time being this past Tuesday...***!!! You would think they would have posted an officer out there to watch the place. If the would have hidden an officer/agent or a high resolution camera in the woods at night or early morning then we would not be talking about this. 5 TIMES!!! REALLY!!!
One would think that there would be a larger investigation of the Clayton church burnings, that we're aware of being conducted. Sadly, if a person of Middle East background or appearance were anywhere near those churches, I fear we'd see the pitchforks and torches.
