Key Takeaways:
• A radical socialist mob intentionally disrupted a Sunday worship service inside an evangelical church in St. Paul, Minnesota, terrifying families and children.
• The church is affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention, making this a direct attack on mainstream evangelical Christianity.
• The invasion violated First Amendment religious freedom, private property rights, and multiple criminal statutes.
• Local authorities failed to act, leaving churches vulnerable and setting a dangerous precedent.
• Radical activist groups increasingly target churches they view as moral opponents, especially over immigration and ICE.
• The media reframed the attack as activism, implicitly excusing intimidation and lawbreaking.
• This incident is part of a nationwide surge in attacks against churches, now at historic levels.
• Federal law already exists to stop this — but selective enforcement has undermined justice.
• Churches must prepare, authorities must act, and Americans must recognize this as an escalating assault on religious liberty.
A church was under siege.
Not overseas.
Not in a hostile dictatorship.
Right here in America.
On a Sunday morning, a radical socialist mob stormed a church service in St. Paul, Minnesota, disrupting worship, shouting political slogans, and terrifying families who had gathered to pray.
This was not spontaneous.
It was not peaceful.
And it was not protected speech. It was a planned assault.
Here are seven Reality Alerts the media is downplaying — or ignoring — that every American must know.
Reality Alert #1
A radical mob invades a church and terror follows.
The attack took place at an evangelical church in St. Paul, Minnesota, affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention.
Families were seated.
Children were present.
The service was underway.
Then chaos erupted.
Roughly two dozen organized activists entered the sanctuary and deliberately disrupted worship, shouting and chanting at full volume.
Reported chants included:
• “No ICE, no KKK, no fascist USA!”
• “Your silence is violence!”
• “Shame! Shame! Shame!”
• “You’re complicit in violence!”
Children cried.
Parents froze.
No one knew what would happen next.
This was not protest.
This was intimidation inside a house of worship.
Reality Alert #2
Who’s behind this and what do they believe?
The activists were connected to radical networks aligned with the Racial Justice Network and similar groups.
Their ideology is clear:
• Pro-socialist
• Black liberation / BLM-style activism
• “Abolish ICE” extremism
• Rejection of biblical moral authority
• Acceptance of disruption, intimidation, and lawbreaking
ICE is the excuse.
The real target is moral authority — and the church represents it.
Reality Alert #3
How the church responded under assault:
The congregation was shocked.
The pastor pleaded from the pulpit, asking the intruders to leave so worship could continue.
Some members calmly approached, urging them to stop.
Church security failed.
Yet one moment stood out.
Several congregants stood with hands raised, praying the entire time.
While activists shouted,
the church prayed.
Reality Alert #4
Local authorities ignored the attack. Federal action is required.
Multiple laws were violated:
• First Amendment protections
• Private property rights
• Trespassing laws
• Civil rights protections
Yet local authorities did nothing.
No arrests.
No immediate consequences.
No deterrence.
When local government refuses to protect constitutional rights, federal intervention becomes necessary.
Reality Alert #5
Radical ideology rejects moral truth. Media helps excuse the crime.
Radical movements reject objective morality.
Ends justify means.
Law becomes optional.
Faith becomes the enemy.
Some national outlets — including CNN — framed the incident primarily through the lens of ICE criticism, minimizing the fact that a church’s constitutional rights were violated.
That logic is dangerous.
If it stands, then churches become fair game.
Reality Alert #6
Federal law exists and it was clearly violated.
The FACE (Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances) Act, signed in the 1990s under President Bill Clinton, was designed to protect churches from intimidation and disruption.
In recent years, the law has been aggressively used under President Joe Biden against peaceful pro-life demonstrators.
Yet when a church is physically invaded, silence exposes selective enforcement.
Equal justice cannot exist without equal enforcement.
Reality Alert #7
This attack is part of a growing national pattern
This was not an isolated incident.
As documented in my earlier report, “Violence Against Churches: New Report Reveals a Doubling of Gun Crimes” (click HERE to read), here are the key findings:
• 415 acts of hostility were committed against 383 churches in 2024 alone.
• Incidents occurred across 43 states.
• Gun-related attacks nearly doubled in one year.
The trajectory is unmistakable.
Churches are being targeted — more often, more boldly, and with fewer consequences.
