Harrisonville police investigate theft of gold chalice from church

Harrisonville police are investigating the theft of a golden chalice from a local church.

A police spokesman said a gold plated silver chalice was reported stolen Friday, June 29 from Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church. The cup, described as having “great sentimental value,” is 8-10 inches tall with two red stones in the base. There is a plate on the bottom that reads “Ian Michael Murphy May 19, 2012 Deus filius meis delectus.”

Harrisonville posted a photo that isn’t the exact chalice, but it looks similar to the stolen one.

If you know where it is or have any information on the chalice you’re asked to call the Harrisonville Police Department at 816-380-8940.
