RIRIE — Windows, paintballs and rocks are becoming objects that local church leaders are dealing with after consistently finding their houses of worship vandalized.

Vandalism has happened at all three churches in the Ririe area with the most recent incident occurring earlier this month at the non-denominational Ririe Chapel on Main Street. For members, it wasn’t their first incident.

“A rock was thrown through one of our smaller windows on the front side of our church,” Pastor James Peterson told EastIdahoNews.com.

Peterson said it’s difficult to continually fund the repairs of broken windows.

The first incident happened last October when it appeared a rock was thrown through the church’s big front window. Both of the window panes were shattered and the sanctuary was filled with glass shards, Peterson said.

“We actually got that window replaced and then a week later they broke that window again,” Peterson said.

The church’s director, Lori Newton, said security cameras were installed after the first two vandalisms.
