11:15 From The Side 1912 Wall In BackGround 11:30 Almost 1/3 Down

The following shots are of the 1955 fire that destroyed the 1912 Graystone Church that stood in the
same location as our present church.  The back wall of that church survived the fire and was used as
a back wall for the Eggleston Building. Our construction company determined this wall was not sound enough to 
be used again for our new project.
