Pro-abortion extremists’ series of attacks and threats against churches, faith-based organizations, and crisis pregnancy centers shows no sign of stopping any time soon, and the latest church to suffer destruction is a historic Catholic church in Raleigh County, West Virginia.
On Sunday, St. Colman Catholic Church, known as “The Little Catholic Church on Irish Mountain”, near Shady Spring, West Virginia, has been burned to the ground.
According to police, the historic church, which was built in 1878 and was given an official historical site designation in 1984, was completely burned to the ground and “smoldering” by the time authorities arrived on the scene Sunday morning.
Officials had not yet shared information about potential suspects in the case, but no one was harmed or killed in the incident.

While Fox News added a few details:
The alleged arson comes as Catholic churches across the U.S. and in Canada have faced a spate of vandalism and arson attacks in recent years.
The church burnings rose amid protests against Canada’s now-defunct residential schools program.
The Department of Homeland Security’s National Terrorism Advisory issued a statement on June 7 saying the nation “remains in a heightened threat environment” and “faith-based institutions” are among the targets.
