LITTLE CURRENT—Members of St. Bernard’s Roman Catholic Church in Little Current are appealing to whoever removed a 40-foot extension ladder from the rear courtyard of the church to return it.
“Maybe whoever took it might feel guilty and will bring it back,” said congregation member Tony Ferro in reaching out to The Expositor about the theft. It is unclear when the ladder was removed from the courtyard. Work to replace the roof of the rectory across the road on Hayward Street has been taking place over the weekend.
Wandering off with a 40-foot ladder, even in the dead of night, is not an easy feat and it is likely that the removal was witnessed by someone. Church leaders have issued a plea to anyone who might have seen the removal of the ladder taking place, and perhaps not realized what was happening, to report the matter.
Members of St. Bernards parish hope that whoever took the ladder will return it soon.
