Almost two and half years after a fire destroyed the EQUIP Church of Turlock building on Columbia Street, neighbors are still left with a visual reminder of the tragedy. A total of eight fire agencies and 45 firefighters were called in to help with the structure fire that was reported at 4:38 a.m. Aug. 28, 2015, by someone who saw flames coming from the basement of the church. While the fire displaced the 50 families who belonged to EUIP Church of Turlock and Off the Hook Ministries, a non-profit ran by the pastor’s wife, no one was injured in the fire as the church was empty at that time of day.
