A lone cross was left standing after a North Texas church burned to the ground. | via NPR
Parts of Balsora Baptist Church dated back roughly 100 years before a fire destroyed the North Texas church on Friday.
Smith, 66, who is the wife of the Balsora Baptist Church's pastor, was working at her daycare Friday when she was told that their house of worship had caught fire during a remodel, she told NPR on Monday. "It showed us that God is there, God is there and he's going to get us through," Smith told NPR, crying."[The cross was] used for the members to put their prayer request on. They would, we would write their prayer request on the tags, and they would hang them on the cross. And so we were able to see what different prayer requests we had."
