From Maryland-The leadership of St. Paul’s by-the-Sea Episcopal Church has decided to demolish its historic rectory destroyed by arson in November, the church announced in its latest newsletter.
“This was not an easy process,” wrote the Rev. Dr. Mark Cyr in the church’s April 1 newsletter, “but the vestry realized that there are more possibilities available to us to exercise our ministries if we are not constrained with the present building.”
Cyr said church leaders met March 23 to discuss the future of St. Paul’s in the wake of a November fire that took the life of pastor the Rev. David Dingwall. The sanctuary has since been shuttered for cleanup and renovations. Parishioners have been holding Sunday services at the adjacent DeWees Hall, the church’s community center.
