Church Severely Damaged In Fire

LIMA — Little is left of a church in Bath Township after a fire Saturday night. At 7:29 p.m., Bath Township Fire Department was notified of the fire at Christian Convention Center, 695 S. Leonard Ave. Bath Township Fire Chief Joe Kitchen described it as a second-alarm fire, meaning all off-duty personnel were called in to help battle the blaze. “We had a mutual aid company [from Lima Fire Department] assisting us and Perry Township [Fire Department] is covering Bath Township while all of our units are out of service,” he said. Upon arrival, flames were visible through the roof rising about 10 feet above it.
