RISING FAWN, Ga. (BNc) — Fire destroyed a small congregation’s building early Sunday morning in this small community in the greater Chattanooga, Tenn., area.

The fire started presumably around 1 am Sunday morning. It is believed to have begun from a heater explosion.

Gaston Green said they were going to meet with the church at Trenton until they decide what they are going to do. About 30 members of the body of Christ meet there.

Rising Fawn is an unincorporated community in the southern part of Dade County, Ga. It is part of the Chattanooga Metropolitan Statistical Area.

Gaston’s father Gabby helped form the Rising Fawn congregation, which met in the Greens’ living room before building the meeting house in 1968.
