Damage found at Taylorsville United Methodist Church

TAYLORSVILLE — Police are looking for the person or people responsible for vandalism at Taylorsville United Methodist Church.

The church was vandalized sometime between Saturday night and early Sunday morning, said Detective Sgt. Jim DeWees of the Maryland State Police.

DeWees said church windows had been broken, screens were sliced and there was extensive damage to the church’s interior. The damage was so bad that the congregation held its service outside Sunday.

“You name it and it was destroyed,” he said.

[…]

John Quick, a 26-year church member, said congregants had worship under an oak tree on their front yard on Sunday.

Quick, who has served on the church’s board of trustees, said Taylorsville UMC has a forgiving heart.

[…]

Pastor Sarah Dorrance said the 75-member church wasn’t prepared to be outside on Sunday, but “nothing stops the service.”

For more information, call DeWees at 410-386-3000.
