The victim, a 68-year-old mother of two named Irene, was heading to service when she was attacked by a male suspect.
Surveillance video shows the attacker run in front of the victim, as she walks up the steps to the church entrance, and violently shove her, sending her falling backwards.
The woman suffered a fractured skull and black eye, but she is in stable condition in the ICU.
After the assault, the suspect grabbed Irene's purse with her car keys and cell phone inside.
He ended up stealing the victim's 2006 Nissan Altima, which police recovered overnight on Tuesday, approximately 3.5 miles away from the church.
