Historic Buffalo Church Torched Twice in Four Days After Sale to Islamic Group

A 140-year-old Catholic church in Buffalo, New York, has been deliberately set ablaze three times in 2025 following its sale to an Islamic organisation, with arson confirmed and the owner unresponsive to securing the site. This fits a documented Western pattern of historic church destruction — from Canada to France to the UK — where Christian heritage is systematically erased amid cultural and demographic shifts, with authorities showing little urgency. Scripture warns that in the last days there will be a great falling away and persecution of the faithful, with Christ himself asking whether he will find faith on the earth at his return (Luke 18:8; 2 Thessalonians 2:3).
