Home Builder Developer - Interior Renovation and Design

Work to repair the damaged 117-year-old Park United Presbyterian Church in Zelienople could take six months once a construction contract is awarded, said the Rev. Paul Merrill, pastor.

What I understand is that they'll probably have to deconstruct the front wall all the way to the foundation and then build it back up, the pastor said.

Yet things are relatively normal after a runaway dump truck plowed into the church on July 14, he said.

The impact knocked down a large portion of the brick facade on the southwest corner of the building, warped stained-glass windows and scattered rocks and debris into the basement nursery, Merrill said.

Vacation Bible school went on as planned last week, said Amy Gilson, Bible school director, except for changing the location from the damaged church sanctuary to Park Hall, a rear fellowship hall.

The church's two Sunday morning worship services are being conducted in Park Hall as well. The pastor said about 110 people typically show up for the two services.

God is good in the midst of these kinds of things, Merrill said. Everything seems somewhat the same, except in a different building.

The accident forced about 15 food and craft vendors to relocate during Zelienople's Horse Trading Days community festival from July 17-19, said Zelienople-Harmony Chamber of Commerce Director Jennifer Ackerman.

An orange construction fence and chain-link fencing surround the work site, making part of the park beside the church unusable.

We had to cut out about half that area and relocated some crafters, Ackerman said. They usually go right up against the building and use that whole space.

RICHMOND, Va. (WRIC) -

Church Hill residents can expect some lane closures as the installation of several traffic circles will begin next Monday.

Alexis Hoeferlin lives at the intersection of Chimborazo Boulevard and Marshall Street.

I've seen people going much over the speed limit, and I consider this a residential area...lot of people on foot. A lot of children around, she said.

That's why she's all for new traffic circles the city is set to install next week, anything to slow down the traffic.

I think it's a great idea. There are a lot of people coming down Marshall and a lot of people who using Church Hill to get to one area to another."

The traffic circles will go up at several intersections...including at Chimborazo and Marshall Street, Chimborazo and N Street, as well as M Street and 27th, 30th and 32nd.

But not everyone is on board

I think this particular intersection doesn't have much need for a traffic circle. I don't see much traffic blockage in this street at all. And one think I like about m street is that there are no stop signs. A traffic circle going in will change that, said Conor Pel-Owen, referring to the intersection of M Street and 32nd.

The city will shut down several roads during construction.

BISCOE The fire in the sanctuary of First Baptist Church in Biscoe Tuesday has been ruled undetermined electrical in nature.

Fire investigators from the State Bureau of Investigation (SBI) and Alcohol Tobacco & Firearms (ATF) made that determination, confirming the initial assessment by the Biscoe Fire Department on Tuesday. A construction project, including wiring for outside lighting, had recently been done in the corner of the sanctuary.

Biscoe Fire Chief Tripp Myrick said the next obstacle was to stabilize the brick walls that are slowly bowing out before they collapse. Biscoe Police have been closely watching the structure for any sign of collapse at night. Fire investigators have been on the scene during the day.

Church members and numerous citizens have also been by to offer condolences and to offer assistance.

Kelly Kellam had immediately offered warehouse storage space for any furniture or other items that were salvageable.

Myrick Construction Inc. crews were successful in removing most of the surviving stained glass windows on Thursday and will finish the delicate task on Friday. These were memorial windows installed when the present church on Main Street was built in 1950.

This was a blow to the town, Commissioner Jimmy Cagle said Wednesday. This church has touched everybody in town at some point in their lives.

First Baptist, under the leadership of the Rev. Larry Wilson and a strong Board of Deacons chaired by Nancy Ruppert, is known for its outreach ministries and diverse congregation.

Wilson, whose health issues have forced him to retire, preached his last sermon on June 29. The Sunday before, half the town had gathered for a retirement dinner and outpouring of love. Larry and Mary Wilson are not leaving Biscoe, just moving from the parsonage to another residence.

The church is not the building. The church is the people, and the people are strong, church members have said repeatedly.
