Catholic News Agency, Joe Burkuras:
The altar of an Arkansas Benedictine monastery was destroyed Thursday, and several relics of ancient saints were stolen.
Subiaco Abbey in Subiaco, Arkansas, said in a press release that on Jan. 5, a man using “a regular hammer and sledgehammer/ax” began destroying the abbey’s marble altar by smashing it in different places. Founded in 1878, Subiaco is home to a community of 39 Benedictine monks. Report is here.
