Just two days after a two-alarm fire ripped through Saint Nicholas of Tolentine Church in University Heights, parishioners gathered for Sunday service.
The service was held at a gym next door to the 100-year-old building.
Parishioners said it's going to take a lot more than a fire to keep them away.
"The people are very strong in their faith and nothing is going to deter us from coming to church."
"Our temple is very special to us and the need to be in there, however, we are the body of Christ and so we are all together."
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
