Historic Louisville Church Owes LG&E $32,000 Dollars

LOUISVILLE, KY. (WDRB) -- A historic Louisville church is in danger of holding worship service in the cold and dark this weekend. As of Thursday night, Lampton Baptist Church is without power.
"I said, well, how could it be this much?" asks Longtime Pastor James Miller. Rev. Miller recently discovered the church has a $32,000 LG&E bill. "It just blew me away."
And this didn't just happen overnight. In fact, the first sign of trouble came last January. Church official Roberta Alston says, "And then the next bill that came in was this, which was really shocking."
"$17,000 in one month... after they had paid it down," says Miller.
