A groundbreaking ceremony is set for today (Friday) on a public pavilion to honor the memory of a Fort Dodge pastor who was murdered outside his church six years ago. Pastor Al Henderson served St. Paul Lutheran Church, and was also chaplain for the Fort Dodge police and fire departments, the Webster County Sheriff’s Office and the Iowa State Patrol. T-J Pingel, who’s organizing the project, says the Pastor Al Pavilion will be built on a particularly scenic area of Kennedy Lake Park just north of Fort Dodge. The 100-thousand dollar project should be finished next year. Donations are still being accepted at the SOS (Serving Our Servants) Facebook page.
