The Chicago Fire Department is battling a massive fire at Antioch Missionary Baptist Church on South Stewart in Englewood.
"Most of the roof is gone," Langford said."It was a very popular church in the Black community."
"I know this: If we've got to lose something, losing it on Good Friday is the best time to lose it because after Good Friday comes resurrection Sunday," Dew said. "It's beyond the walls of the sanctuary, we are a family beyond the church walls. And we love each other," said Marquita Gill, church member."It's very devastating, but I know we'll get past it."
