The state is surveying the area of Mt. Ararat A.M.E. Church at 7061 Market Street, a historically black church on Market Street, to check for marked and unmarked graves.

As part of the planned Military Cutoff Road extension project, the cemetery of an old historic church in Ogden will be scanned for marked and unmarked graves.

Jack Provost, division construction engineer with the N.C. Department of Transportation, said the goal of the project is to not move any graves at Mt. Ararat A.M.E. Church, 7061 Market St.

"We knew we'd have an impact on the church," Provost said. "We do not know the extent of graves being removed or not."

The addition of a right turn lane from Market Street onto a planned new road has always been part of the extension schematic. The roughly 2 1/2-mile extension project, which could have a price tag pushing $113 million when all costs are factored in, would connect Market Street, where Military Cutoff currently terminates, to U.S. 17, also known as the Wilmington Bypass.

The slightest chance graves may need to be relocated, however, is something that's recently been getting some negative feedback.

New Hanover County Commissioner Jonathan Barfield said during a recent Wilmington-area transportation meeting that he has concerns DOT would even considering disinterring graves there.

"Why unearth remains for a project?" Barfield said.

State transportation officials met with church members several weeks ago to discuss the project, but county and city officials were not notified, Barfield said.

"I have a problem with not knowing about DOT even looking for the graves," said Barfield, who has family members buried there.

After years of planning and preparations, Rev. Darryl Fort and True Vine Bible Fellowship in Lompoc are finally ready to begin one of their biggest projects the construction of a 15,000-square-foot family life center.

It takes time, and the timing has to be right, said Fort, who came to the church in 2001. Weve been trying to get this done for a long time.

The family life center, which begins construction Sunday, will fill a great need for True Vine, located at 533 Avalon St., Fort said. The family life center will provide eight large classrooms, needed for Sunday school classes, he said.

It will also feature both a commercial kitchen and a multipurpose area to be used as a gymnasium and fellowship hall.

We needed a larger fellowship hall, Fort said. The congregation has grown over the years, and we needed classrooms to meet the needs of the membership.

Currently, the sanctuary doubles as a fellowship hall with classrooms, Fort said. After construction on the family life center is completed, the fellowship hall will be converted into a childrens church and a nursery.

True Vine began focusing on building the center in 2008 and started saving money from collections, Fort said. The church never held any outside fundraisers for the center, he said.

True Vine was founded in 1966 by Rev. C.F. Hudson, a native of Oklahoma, who hosted small Bible studies in his home. The church gradually expanded over the years, eventually moving into its current building in 1985. In 2007, True Vine then became independent from True Vine Ministries Inc., located in Oklahoma, and was able to pay off the mortgage on its Avalon Street building in 2011.

Now, Fort hopes the construction will be completed in March 2015. He said True Vine will begin using the new facility as soon as possible.

Just knowing that construction will soon be underway is exciting, Fort said.

Courtesy | Adus Dorsey The LDS Teasdale church, which some locals called "the Little White Chapel," was demolished on Friday after workers removed its bell. The building had not been in use for several years.

Heritage Little White Chapel was built by locals and served the community for years.

As soon as he laid eyes on the Mormon meetinghouse in Teasdale, Bryce "Mike" Rubeck knew he wanted to live in the tiny Wayne County community, and for 26 years, hes made his home there.

But the "Little White Chapel," as some called it, is no longer there. Despite a last-ditch effort to save the building, the church, which had long sat unused, was demolished Friday.

A group of residents had proposed that Wayne County be deeded the church and a nonprofit be formed to raise money to preserve the building as a museum. County commissioners had passed a resolution in support of the plan and the Mormon Pioneer National Heritage Area had agreed to a request to help with the preservation.

But after reviewing the plan, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints decided to proceed with the demolition.

"Church leaders carefully evaluate all of the circumstances when considering a buildings future," church spokesman Cody Craynor said. "In this instance, some local residents had expressed interest in repurposing the Teasdale chapel, but the building had sat empty for several years and would have required significant and costly repairs."

Instead, the land where the chapel stood will be donated to the Daughters of Utah Pioneers, which occupies a neighboring building on the same parcel, Craynor said.

Rubeck, a non-Mormon, said the church was important to all residents regardless of their faith. He described the chapel as the heart and soul of Teasdale, which he estimates has a population of 125 to 150 people.

"When I first visited here in the late 1980s and saw the church," Rubeck recalled, "it radiated a spirit to me and I said, I have to live here. "
