Burned

Our Church Building in Mukilteo was burned down last Saturday! It was arson. Such a sad, sad thing. Everything is lost for the two wards that met here. Now we have to meet at the Stake Center where three wards already meet! It will be a busy church building. The Sunday after it happened we met at a building out of our stake and the media was there interviewing people. I made it on the news that night in the clip they showed! It was weird to see myself on TV. It's just sad that someone would do this. It will probably be over a year before we have another Church built.

Yep, I saw you on that clip! So sorry to hear about the building. Are you guys combining with another ward? Meeting at a different time than the other wards? How does that work? You're right, it will be very busy!

I saw that happened in Washington, but had no idea it was your building. How sad. People are just unreal sometimes. Hope the new building goes up quickly. How can they possibly fit 5 wards into one building? Crazy!

Fire is awful, especially when it is intentional. Hopefully the rebuild will happen soon. :o)

That is awful. Who does things like that? That will be a crazy Sunday schedule for you guys. I won't complain about our small 7th avenue building or having to start with Relief Society anymore. :)

That is sad to see the church completely gone. The second photo is awful. Sorry about the new times, hopefully the rebuild is a quick one.
