Fire breaks out at historic whi

The Baptist Temple at Schermerhorn Street and Third Avenue in Boerum Hill was damaged during a three-alarm fire that broke out last night, Gothamist reported. The blaze started at 11:30 p.m. in the organ loft and was under control a few hours later. Four firefighters suffered minor injuries. “We’ll rebuild it, we’ll make it maybe prettier, maybe nicer,” Raymond
Ramos, the church’s pastor, told ABC 7. “God works everything out for the good.” The Brooklyn church is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. [Gothamist]
