That would be the little Greek Church that faced south?

I think they said it was called, Trinity, St. Paul. I searched for the story but have not found it. Today they are letting the resue workers to rest there and to seek medical care. The little cemetry is full of ashes.

No the Greek Church was destroyed. The Chapel is St. Paul's Episcopal Chapel where George Washington used to worship. It was covered in ash and debris but was unharmed miraculously.

The Greek Orthodox Church that was destroyed was called St. Nicholas. The Roman Catholics of Bari, Italy are sending half a million dollars to help rebuild the little Orthodox Church. Bari is where St. Nicholas' earthly remains are said to rest.
