Fledgling church fills club's spot
SPRINGFIELD (AP) — The former Club Chrome is now a house of worship.
Faith Ministries International, a non-denominational church, purchased and remodeled the former nightclub at 3075 Normandy Road and has been holding Wednesday and Sunday services there since mid-October.
It is a dramatic switch, said Pastor Emmanuel Odele, for a property that was shut down by the city in December 2011 for repeated violations of city liquor, safety and building codes.
