If you watch the Grand Case video that is posted a bit further down, I believe there is a clip shown of the church towards the end (unless my eyes deceive me, which is quite possible these days). It looks like the building is standing, but can't see inside (or up close) damage. Right around the 1:07 mark. Looks like it lost the red shingles; not sure what else.

In the drone video posted in the Grand Case Video thread you can see footage of the church.....looks like more damage than the first video indicated (which is true for the entire town).....take note at 1:20

Would have loved to see drone footage up to the GCBC.



EDIT: had the wrong time for finding the church
