A call from the Trinity United Methodist Church congregation to keep a cellular phone antenna off the cross atop the sanctuary has led officials to reconsider the placement. Worshipers said they were worried about radiation from the antenna.

Church leaders will meet today to decide whether to go ahead with an AT&T; Wireless agreement to allow the antenna.

Parents of youngsters in the church’s preschool are concerned about potentially harmful effects of radio waves from the antenna.
