NORTH ROYALTON, Ohio (Fox8) — Fire officials are investigating the cause of a blaze that ripped through Saint Matthew the Evangelist Antiochian Orthodox Church in North Royalton Saturday morning.
It happened at around 9 a.m. at the church on Albion Road, when someone inside called to report the fire.

I was staying in the Cleveland area this past summer and happened to visit this very church. You couldn't ask to meet a more warm, active, and vibrant community. I have no doubt that God's grace sustain them in this wake of this disaster. My prayers go out to them.
