• VIDEO: Neighbors and fire chief talk about fire that destroyed Nazarene church
  

  Fire completely consumed the Lebanon Church of the Nazarene early Sunday morning. The fire started just as storms passed through the area at about 5:30 a.m. Lebanon Police Chief Jason Lee said lightning caused the fire, striking the church and spreading on electrical wiring, igniting the flames in several places throughout the building.

  When firefighters arrived at 5:47 a.m., an area of about 40 feet by 60 feet was burning. Church services were held at the Lebanon Middle School. Watch reporter.net for more details as they become available.
