Neighbors two doors away from the church were watching the storm and witnessed the lightning strike, exploding the shingles away from the roof and sending them like projectiles across the property. They also saw the roof catch fire as a result but said the rain quickly put the flames out.
Damage is largely on the east side of the cupola between the lantern and cross crowning the steeple as partially visible in above photo.
