A tiny Methodist congregation in Co Tyrone is preparing to stand guard over its church this weekend to prevent a further attack on it. Derrylee Methodist Church, near Dungannon, has been attacked every weekend since the beginning of May.
The church had windows smashed on each occasion. "Security grilles may be installed on the windows but it's difficult to know what else we can do," said the Rev Trevor Jameson, the church's minister.
"Any attack on any church is an act of sacrilege. We have a very small congregation who just want to be there to worship God."
