She says police are continuing to do proactive patrols around places of worship in Prince George to curb the ongoing vandalism. Additionally, some churches have taken the extra step of hiring private security to conduct their own patrols.

This isn’t the first time this church has been hit by vandals this summer. As CKPG Today reported earlier this month, there was a string of churches vandalized in June and July.
