FBI warns of ISIS calls for attacks on U.S. churches
There are news reports of an FBI/Homeland Security bulletin issued for this weekend, indicating the possibility of churches’ being targets for ISIS attacks.
The basis for this bulletin is chatter on ISIS-related social media sites.
Let us continue to be cautious as we gather but not allow this reported threat to remove the joy and wonder of our celebration of the birth of Jesus.
Let us remember that we are a people who know that love is stronger than hate.
May the joy of this season be with you today and always.
Grace and peace,
