- WTNH: "More than 24,600 customers of Connecticut Light & Power had no lights or power as of 4:55 p.m. All of Bridgwater, and large portions of New Milford and Roxbury were without power."
In New Milford, a town of thirty thousand, Faith Church is a matter of curiosity. The doors of Faith Church open onto a spacious and well-lit reception area with plasma TV screens and comfortable sofas. Brochures advertise Bible-study classes, a day care, a K-12 school, and a variety of ministries. The sanctuary at Faith Church looks like a modern concert hall, with more than a thousand seats arrayed in front of a deep stage. The services often begin with soft rock music. The congregation is for- End of Story: We drove home to New York, where the electricity is plentiful. Neighbor in Connecticut emails, "Power is out here for who knows how long."
