$5K reward for information leading to arrest in Clay County church fire
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Investigators are still working to determine the cause of a fire that destroyed a historic Black church in Orange Park.
For the last month, Deacon Lester Perry, the church administrator, said the congregation at the St. Simon Baptist Church in Orange Park has been meeting in a large tent on Sunday mornings just yards away from the burnt husk of the former building.
“It’s sad because of the time and years that we put into the church,” Perry said.
