According to the tracker of the political advocacy group CatholicVote, 351 Catholic churches were attacked across the United States since May 2020. The attacks include “acts of arson which damaged or destroyed historic churches; spray-painting and graffiti of satanic messages; rocks and bricks thrown through windows; statues destroyed (often with heads cut off); and illegal disruptions of Mass.”
So so sad for Priest and congregation. Any GTV readers go to Holy Mass here?
@Strong and Steadfast GTV started decades ago as a video site and then developped into this Catholic social media.
Yes, my family and I are parishioners there. Mass will be celebrated in the parking lot under tents this Sunday.
