FAIR OAKS, Ark. (KAIT) - In Cross County, a church family is rejoicing. Theyâre doing something difficult, rebuilding their church during a pandemic.
After a two-year wait and a fire that devastated Fair Oaks Assembly of God, they have begun their rebuilding process.
The project started two months ago, and a steel frame was erected just four days ago.
Rodney Eldridge, the lead pastor, says that it has been an emotional experience members saw the progress for the first time on Sunday. Everyone is thankful to have their church home back soon after the fire destroyed the church on Aug. 18, 2018.
