Update Regarding June 16 Theft at Church
In June we let you know about a theft at church. This brief update is to let you know the person who carried out the theft (someone not affiliated with our church) was apprehended by the police and the situation is now being handled by the Monmouth County Prosecutor’s office. The person entered our premises during non-church / non-office hours through a door that was not properly latched. This issue has been addressed by a local lock smith.
Regarding the financial loss, we submitted a claim to our insurance company who conducted a short investigation.  We are happy to report that investigation is now closed and we recently received payment for our estimated cash loss (lost checks were not covered).  Again, we apologize for the inconvenience and concern this incidence caused and have worked to address concerns from all avenues.
