Pleasant Hill Victory AME Church in Atlanta, Georgia, Faces Cemetery Damage From Illegal Tire Dumping
Pleasant Hill Victory African Methodist Episcopal Church, a small congregation in Atlanta, is facing vandalism and damage to grave sites after more than 100 tires were dumped illegally on its property.
The church’s pastor, Lola Russell, is asking for help to repair the damage. A fundraising page has been set up to pay for removing the tires and restoring the church’s gravesite and grounds, a practical kind of care for a congregation’s loss (Galatians 6:9).
The report does not say who dumped the tires or whether anyone has been charged. It also does not give the cost of the repairs or a timeline for the work. The fundraising page is the most recent step described in the source.
