Sacred Heart of Mary Church was hit with similar vandalism back in September of last year.

BOULDER, Colo. — Vandalism was reported at a Catholic church in Boulder early Wednesday morning, according to the Boulder County Sheriff's Office (BCSO).

The agency said it responded to the Sacred Heart of Mary Church, located at 6739 S. Boulder Rd., and found graffiti with anti-church and pro-choice messages.

The same church was vandalized in September of last year with similar messages, although BCSO said they can't say at this time whether the two incidents are connected.
