Pastor's Powerful Response after a Vandal Smashed Almost Every Church Window on Christmas Eve
"...Have a Merry Christmas because this is not going to stop us." -Pastor Eric Borchers
[Faithwire.com] When a vandal decided to shatter almost all of the windows at Our Savior Lutheran Church in Austin, Texas, on Christmas Eve, the church community rallied, cleaned up the mess—and pressed forward with services.
"Have a Merry Christmas because this is not going to stop us," Pastor Eric Borchers said in a Facebook video after the shocking discovery.
The preacher, who also offered forgiveness, said the church hasn't seen anything like this in its 20-year history.
Security cameras show a suspect emerging around 6 a.m. and using what appeared to be a metal pole with signage attached to bash in the windows.
Borchers said he assumes the man wasn't in his right mind at the time. Footage appears to show the vandal whistling as he left the scene, KTBC-TV reported.
