Parishioners of Parafia pw. Najświętszego Serca Jezusowego hold expiatory service in Radom

Parishioners from the Sacred Heart of Jesus Parish in Radom held an expiatory service to ask God for forgiveness following the profanation of several chapels and holy sites across the city. During the service, the faithful sang supplications to atone for the vandalism.

The devotion included the blessing of a restored historic chapel located at the intersection of Kwiatkowskiego and Białej streets. A group of believers repaired the site by installing a metal grate and reinforced glass. Father Roman Adamczyk, the parish priest, blessed the renovated chapel before the community sang their prayers.

The vandalism, which included pouring paint over monuments, affected numerous sites in Radom, including chapels on Limanowskiego, Słowackiego, Wierzbickiej, and Ofiar Firleja streets, a figure on the cathedral facade on Sienkiewicza street, and a figure at the intersection of Młodzianowska and Wiejska streets. Police arrested a 34-year-old man in connection with the damage, and prosecutors have presented him with 12 charges.
