Yesterday’s incident follows an arson attack on at the Heatherbrae Parade church overnight on Saturday.
Canobolas Local Area Command (LAC) duty officer Inspector Dave Harvey said police were yet to confirm a link between the events.
“We haven’t ruled anything out,” Inspector Harvey said.
“Police are taking this very seriously and are investigating all possible lines of inquiry.”
He said it was lucky nobody was in the church at the time of the “life threatening” incident.
A crime scene had been established at the site and a police forensic team travelled from Dubbo to investigate the scene.
