I was shocked when I read the huge announcement on the door of the adoration chapel in our Parish church.It says that the Blessed Sacrament has been stolen and the bishop ordered to immediately close the adoration chapel for public. What happened to people nowadays???? It is a sheer blasphemy. I wonder what will the culprit do with the Holy Host? What is their motive?

The world is full of selfish people, though there are still good people out there.

Perhaps the person is a Satanist. They're the only ones who enjoy desecrating such. Sad when it happens but let's keep praying for the conversion of sinners everyday.

Maybe they thought they can sell it at a huge price. I had heard that if that happens, the parishioners are obliged to make some sacrifice for what happened.

This is sad! Why can't some people just apply for job instead of stealing.

If this is for ransom, then it could be the reason for criminals. Or might be some internal fight to blame others.
