A fire ignited at the Trinity Church in Nowata on Friday morning around 11. The Nowata Fire Department responded to the fire, and had to call in other crews to help assist. 

 

Nowata Fire Dispatch says that there were 13 other fire crews working to control the fire, and the building is a total loss. No cause of the fire has been determined yet.  However, there are no injuries reported at this time.

 

Trinity Church Pastor, Connie Wilson, says that she never could have imagined what happened.

 

 

Pastor Wilson says that she is not disheartened though, and that “...the God that I serve is bigger than a fire.”

 

Worship service is still planned for Sunday, and Pastor Wilson says that the outpouring of support has already been felt from the community
