Fire Destroys Tahsis Christian Church

I was away this past weekend when a fire destroyed the Tahsis Christian Church, an iconic community building in Tahsis, on the inlet.  No one was seriously hurt.  Thanks to the Tahsis Volunteer Firefighters, together with several community members, the fire, which threatened to spread to the neighbouring houses up  the hill, was contained and extinguished.

Being married to a firefighter, I can attest to the incredible sense of community spirit and responsibility that these people take to heart as they work hard to keep us safe and sound.

Here is the article in the Gold River Record, written by Lori Bennett, who first saw the flames and called it in.
