First responding to the scene was Amity, then Stonersville from Exeter. Also contributing were Boyertown, Oley, Birdsboro and Reifton. While damage was extensive to the roof and ceiling on the east side of the building, meeting members were amazed to see that the firefighters had covered the floor and benches on the west side to limit exposure to water. <br /><br />Members appreciate the quick and considerate action of our neighbors who volunteer to protect lives and property.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1572173369483587025-647886685992876314?l=exeter-events.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Stanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04457958880710886946noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1572173369483587025.post-70294085153143731132011-04-03T22:23:00.008-04:002011-04-04T00:27:11.836-04:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://readingeagle.com/REnetImages/2011/03/22/82941739/500x500_82582284.jpg"><img style="float: right; margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; cursor: pointer; width: 250px; height: 170px;" src="http://readingeagle.com/REnetImages/2011/03/22/82941739/500x500_82582284.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />On Sunday, March 20th Exeter Friends' meeting house suffered extensive fire damage to its roof and ceiling. During the two weeks since we have received numerous expressions of support and offers of help. We are grateful to all.<br /><br />We have met these past two first-days after worship to discuss next steps toward restoring the meeting house. As the way opens we will endeavor to keep our local and broader community informed of how we can work together toward that end.<br /><br />Please stay linked to this blog for updates and news.<br /><br /><span style="font-size:78%;">Reading Eagle: Lauren A.
