A Bronx church still suffering from the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy is bouncing back after raising $40,000 to repair its roof.
Walls and windows at the Green Pastures Baptist Church in the Bronx still need replacement.

A church foundation is also lobbying to have the church declared a landmark for its architecture and history.
