"At least three people are seeking compensation after green paint on church benches came off on the clothes of attendees at a recent concert.
But at least the congregation can content themselves with the thought that they have finally made their mark in God's house, a Loviisa church official said.
When churchmembers departed the service, they left behind the outlines of dozens of derrieres.
"There are a lot of imprints on the benches," the church's financial officer Mona Lindfors told Reuters on Tuesday." Reuters
