- Around 5:30 on Easter Sunday (2023), Cambridge FAO Struck box 285 for the Faith Lutheran Church at Broadway and Prospect St. Immediately after pulling out of quarters, First due Engine 5 reported smoke showing from the area. DC Ikels (Division 1) ordered a 2nd Alarm on arrival, reporting heavy smoke from the steeple-area. Immediately after entering the church companies were met with heavy fire conditions on the inside in the front, and Division 1 requested engine companies stretch big lines to combat the blaze. While companies made good progress with an aggressive attack, fire spread up the walls of the steeple, and it was determined the steeple was at risk of collapse. The OIC DC Ikels struck a 3rd alarm and shortly after ordered all members into an exterior operation. Tower Ladder 2, Somerville Tower 1, Ladder 1 and Ladder 4 began master stream operations, and several deckguns/blitzfires were set up. The 4th, 5th and eventually 6th alarms were ordered to bring more water in to protect exposures and feed master-streams. Companies operated through the night, maintaining a collapse zone. The Fire is being investigated as Arson.
Footage starts around 10 minutes after the initial alarm, and finishes around the time all remaining fire in the steeple was knocked down.
*Note - Apologies for the spec of dust visible throughout the entire video, it was in my camera lens and I did not notice until after the fire. This also attributes to how late the video is being posted... I tried to edit it out but eventually gave up and decided to post the raw footage.

Ive seen this fire before but the way you did your video on this fire was totally awesome. You caught all the greatest parts of what it took to fight this fire for all these responders. They did a wonderful job and you really showed that. Thank you for such a great put together video...🤗🤗
Hopefully there were no injuries to anyone related to this incident, I've seen a couple of churches burn ( including the one that I attended as a child. Thank you to all firefighters everywhere for protecting the citizens of your coverage area.
Great job
Another great job
All I know that I've seen a church by me after lighting set the church ablaze. I hope they can rebuild the church. I hope someone save all the stained glass to rebuild them.
I also hope no one was injured or killed from a blaze like this.
Very sad to see.
These old Gothic churches - when they catch fire, there is so little you can do...
French Europe Paris cathédrale of Paris Fire in 2 ou 3 year 😢😢😢
I remember all the stupid comments armchair firefighters made about the video. The building was old wood inside with stucco outside fire in the walls and roof. Firefighters did everything they could to save the building it was a losing battle sadly.
I wonder if that's a woke church that mocks God??
Judge not lest you be judged, for what you see as a splinter in their eye is a log in your eye...
First love God with all your heart, soul and body, then love your neighbor as yourself.
These are what I call Matthew's greatest hits and far too many Christians forget them...
lol that was the first thing I wondered
