The donations in cash, credit cards, and checks were reported missing from a safe at Osteen’s Lakewood Church sometime Sunday afternoon.
'We were heartbroken to learn today that funds were stolen from the church over the weekend," the church said in a release to its congregation.
Otherwise, the organization is staying tight lipped.
“The funds were fully insured, and we are working with our insurance company to restore the stolen funds to the church," they pointed out.
Church worker Donald Lloff Jr. told the Houston Chronicle "Lakewood Church is working in conjunction with the Houston Police Department to investigate this matter. We do not want to compromise the investigation by commenting at this time."
While disappointed, the church made it clear the donations from their followers won't be lost.
