Father please heal the injured Firefighters and keep everyone safe from harm and danger, Amen🙏‼️
Very sad. Just lost a beautiful historic building and a pipe organ that is over 150 years old. We really need to start taking better care of and caring more about our history

The First Reformed Church of Astoria, located in Astoria, Queens, was organized in 1839 and is one of the neighborhood's oldest institutions, predating the naming of the village of Astoria. The current brick Victorian Gothic building was constructed in 1888 after a fire destroyed the original 1836 structure.
Please lord keep them safe 🙏🏼🕊
