Vandalism Disrupts Church Funeral Prep | St. Louis News

A funeral looms for a 97-year-old woman, but the church—Kennerly Temple—is left sweltering without working AC, thanks to vandals who ripped out units and a water meter for copper. The pastor is furious, not just over the damage but the lack of police response despite having video and photos of suspects. This isn’t an isolated case; other local churches have suffered similar attacks. One family member, a lawyer, is taking action by demanding the mayor push for justice. Police confirm they took the report and urge victims to submit evidence and stay vigilant—especially with alarms, which were also damaged. This heartbreaking situation underscores a growing threat to community institutions, where places of solace are being targeted, leaving families and congregants in distress.
