Brussels, IL (KSDK) -- Leaders of a church which was destroyed in a spectacular Christmas Eve fire have established a fund to help rebuild the historic house of worship.
The Saturday night fire destroyed St. Mary's Catholic Church in Brussels. Witnesses say the church was engulfed in flames when they arrived. Crews from several fire departments worked for hours putting the fire. No one was hurt, and the cause is still unknown.
Parishioner Charles Burch, who's also the Calhoun County state's attorney, says anyone who wants to donate cash or send checks to help the recovery may send them to the St. Mary's Church Rebuilding Fund, Box 38, Brussels, Illinois, 62013.
