Christ Community Church Family
Last night around 10:00 P.M. a fire occurred at the church. The foyer and cafe area was heavily damaged. The nursery along with portions of the kids wing sustained water and smoke damage. The main sanctuary sustained smoke damage and other parts of the building also sustained smoke damage. At this time we do not know how extensive the damages are. Electricity to the main building (sanctuary, foyer, kids wing) has been shut off by Rutherford Electric. The cause of the fire is still under investigation by the City of Gastonia Fire Department. This is all we know at this point. No one is allowed in the main building it is unsafe. We are so thankful that no one was in the building at the time of the fire. We will keep you updated as the day progresses and we know more. Please be reminded that it is not the building that makes the church, it is God’s people. “YOU ARE THE CHURCH” and the gates of hell cannot prevail against “HIS CHURCH”. God is still at work even during this most difficult time. Please pray one for another.

A Gaston County church was significantly damaged during a fire on Monday night.

Smoke billowed from Christ Community Church with several firetrucks at the site near West Franklin Boulevard.

There was severe damage to what seemed to be a coffee bar-style space.

The Gastonia Fire Department stated no one was injured in the fire.

Jimmy Maney, Founding Pastor / Elder of Christ Community Church, expressed gratitude that no one was inside the church when the fire broke out, and that the information is being shared with insurance personnel to determine the next steps.

“I know God’s already at work. He’ll supply us a meeting place…we’re not worried about that. We are just so fortunate and thankful that no one was in the building.”
– Pastor Jimmy Maney

The Gastonia Fire Marshal’s Office is now investigating the cause of the fire.
