Firefighters battled a massive fire at the Pentecostal Determine Church of God on Cleveland's east side. While no one was injured, many in the neighborhood are sad to see the building go.RAW: Crews battle church fire Cleveland Fire believes the fire broke out around 7 a.m. in a condemned vacant church in the 9100 block of Miles Park. When fire officials arrived, flames could be seen coming out of the top of the church.
A house on the east side of the church suffered a little bit of damage from the fire. After the flames were put out all that was left of the old church was a collapsed roof, debris everywhere and walls with gaping holes. "My sister got married there, we had seen a lot of good Easter services there," John continued."It was beautiful inside it had a second level and the altar area, everything was beautiful, the paintings and stained glass window.""The whole structure of the building is still there, but the inside is still gone, but its still devastating because like a church to me is a sacred place, like that's things you don't touch, that’s like a bad omen," said Hendking.
“We could do some things around the community, revitalize the community with the church and probably has services,” said Hendking.“I just hope they figure out something to do with the building. If not like I said tear it down because it's going to be trouble,” said Hendking.
