Thieves steal 31 bundles of shingles from St. Georges church
Thieves made off with 31 bundles of classic brown shingles from Mercy Christian Church in St. Georges on Sunday afternoon.
Giles Mullen, the Minister at Mercy Christian Church, says, "the replacement cost for the 31 bundles of shingles will be $1560.00."
The shingles were to be used to shingle the roof of the church. The small congregation received some outside financial support for the project along with some personal donations.
The church had been trying to complete some much-needed repairs. Mullen adds, "it serves us well and gives us a home for our work in the community."
Mullen says the RCMP has been notified and has launched an investigation.
