Please pray for our churches!
Vandals desecrated St. Therese of the Child Jesus Catholic Church in Midvale, Utah on Mon., Sept. 14, and Tues., Sept. 15. This is one of many statue and/or church desecrations throughout the United States this year.
The parish posted the first announcement on Facebook. The post includes photos of the beheaded St. Therese statue, which sat in front of the main church.
Here’s the post below:
The first post reads, “Sometime last night our statue of St. Therese of the Child Jesus outside of the Main Church was broken and vandalized. We are currently in contact with the police.
“Please pray for the person who did this, that they may come forward and get the help they need. It is an unfortunate situation. We will keep you updated if we get any more information. St. Therese, pray for us!”
The church also set up a statue replacement donation fund.
