Church funds allegedly stolen from woman’s home.

Published

Well well well, looks like Santa isn’t the only one making off with some serious cash this holiday season!

A thief allegedly stole a safe containing $50,000 belonging to a church on All Saints Road from a woman’s home.

The safe was also said to contain her passport and birth certificate. Looks like the thief hit the jackpot, but let’s hope they have a conscience and return the important documents at least.

    Why was the church funds in the woman’s custody? Don’t they have a night safe arrangement with their bank to deposit into the bank even on a Sunday? The monies should be double counted and the deposit slip written up, then 2 members deposit at the night safe.
    The robbers must have had inside information. Just imagine stealing church offerings. May God have mercy on them!

      The person who steals the church will be cursed and their children and children-children. They better return the church money. These are some of the wickedness that causes generation to generation to suffer.

      There’s no such thing as a curse. But you would believe it because you are superstitious. And for your information a belief or creed are not facts. But you can continue to live your life believing mtyhs whether from the bible or Paradise Lost or any other stories.
