Thieves steal collection box from church
This is a depressing story.
Gardaí in Co Mayo are investigating the theft of a collection box from a church in Crossmolina last weekend.
The money, which was destined for African missions, was taken from St Tiernan's Church on New Year's Eve.
Local curate Fr Michael Reilly said the box was so big it would have taken at least two people to remove it from the church.
It is believed to have contained between €700 and €1,200.
How sad is this? What kind of warped individuals rob a church of its collection money?
Utter scumbags and hopefully they'll soon be caught and imprisoned.
Irish society sinks to a new low...
