The Jeffrey Epstein victims of child sex abuse gained national exposure last month when they all met in Washington D.C. with Congressman Thomas Massie, Congressman Ro Khann, and Congresswoman Majorie Taylor Greene. Some of them came forward in public for the first time. See:

Jeffrey Epstein is not the only person who has trafficked and sexually abused children, however, as it is commonplace in American Churches as well.

And now many victims of child sex abuse by pastors are also coming forward, some of them decades later after the abuse occurred, while these pedophile pastors continued their roles in churches, sexually abusing and trafficking who knows how many other children.

Often times this is done in partnership with the U.S. Government as State-licensed Foster parents, giving them access to an entire pipeline of children to abuse.

One story that brought national headline news recently is the guilty plea of Pastor Robert Morris, the founder of the Texas megachurch, Gateway Church, who sexually abused a young girl back in the 1980s.

How many other children did he sexually abuse during the past 40 years before he was caught?

Former Texas megachurch pastor Robert Morris pleads guilty to child sex abuse charges

The founder of a Texas megachurch who resigned last year after a woman in Oklahoma accused the pastor of sexually abusing her in the 1980s pleaded guilty Thursday to five counts of lewd and indecent acts with a child, authorities said.

Robert Preston Morris, 64, entered the pleas before a judge in Oklahoma’s Osage County as part of a plea agreement, according to the state attorney general’s office.

The alleged abuse began in 1982 when the victim was 12 and Morris was a traveling evangelist staying in Hominy, Oklahoma, with her family, according to the statement by Oklahoma Attorney General Gentner Drummond. The abuse allegedly continued for four years.

Morris, the senior pastor of Gateway Church in Southlake, Texas, until his resignation, was indicted by an Oklahoma grand jury last year. Under the plea agreement, Morris received a 10-year suspended sentence with the first six months to be served in the Osage County Jail.

The victim, Cindy Clemishire, who is now 55, said in a statement that

“justice has finally been served, and the man who manipulated, groomed and abused me as a 12-year-old innocent girl is finally going to be behind bars.”

Morris is an evangelical pastor who served on President Donald Trump’s Evangelical Advisory Board in 2016.

Robert Morris, founder and former senior pastor of Gateway Church in Texas who served on President Donald Trump’s Evangelical Advisory Board in 2016, pleaded guilty on Thursday to five felony counts of child sexual abuse.

Morris, formerly of Gateway—one of the largest evangelical congregations in Texas—resigned from the church last year amid the accusations.

The case marks a significant development in ongoing national discussions concerning abuse within religious organizations and the challenges survivors face in seeking justice. The guilty plea and sentencing of such a prominent religious figure cast a spotlight on the mechanisms of institutional accountability and the ongoing efforts to address sexual abuse in faith-based communities and beyond.

In 2020, during a “Roundtable on Transition to Greatness” event in Texas, Trump mentioned Morris along with another pastor, calling them “great people.” Trump added, according to archived White House remarks, “Great people with a great reputation. I have to say that. Great reputation. And Gateway Church — the team has been incredible in hosting us.”

NBC News has run an investigative report this year called “PASTORS AND PREY” where many victims of pedophile pastors have come forward, some of them decades later, to talk about how they were sexually abused by pastors in the Assemblies of God, the world’s largest Pentecostal denomination.

Some of these pastors raped and sexually abused children for decades before anyone dared to stop them, demonstrating just how much influence and power these pastors hold in their churches.

The 40-year mission to stop a Pentecostal preacher accused of raping children

Joe Campbell says his calling is to share God’s love, but a group of women say he sexually abused them as girls. An NBC News investigation uncovered decades of missed warnings and failures to act.

The women have spent decades trying to forget, but some memories haunt them. The way the children’s pastor wrapped them in his arms. The terrifying stories he told about demons and the warmth in his voice as he promised to protect them. The chill of his hands on parts of their bodies where no grown man’s hands should be. The blood some of them found in their underwear afterward.

They can still picture the spaces where it happened: A church nursery. A childhood bedroom. His garage during a youth group sleepover.

This, they say, is the dark secret behind the public ministry of Joseph Lyle Campbell, a magnetic Pentecostal preacher who built a national following with fiery sermons on sin, salvation and America’s moral decline.

As Campbell tells it, he was a teenager when God gave him a mission: to share his love of Jesus with children. In the decades since, as he evangelized from church to church across the South and Midwest, he has repeatedly faced accusations of child sexual abuse, an NBC News investigation found.

Almond is one of five women who told NBC News that Campbell, now 67, sexually assaulted them when they were children in the 1970s and ’80s.

In Oklahoma, Kerri Jackson says he molested her once to twice a week for three years starting when she was about 9. In Arkansas, Lisa Ball says Campbell invited her to live with him after she became a teen mother, then raped her repeatedly.

In Missouri, Kim Williams had just turned 15 when she says Campbell reached his hand up her shorts at his parsonage. In that same home, Phaedra Creed says Campbell sexually assaulted her night after night, at age 14, while his wife and children slept upstairs.

Many of these stories involve working together with the State to foster and adopt children, and it is not surprising that many of them happen in Oklahoma, as this recent story shows how easy it is for a social worker, many of whom have no college degrees or special training to be child welfare social workers, to kidnap a baby.

Father sues Oklahoma Human Services after former worker pleads guilty to kidnapping

OKLAHOMA CITY (KFOR) — A metro father is suing after his one-year-old was kidnapped by a former Oklahoma Human Services worker.

Earlier this year, Xander Faison was a DHS hotline worker and used fake papers to remove a child and take her to her own apartment.

The father of that child has now filed a lawsuit against the Oklahoma Department of Human Services (DHS).

It comes after Faison pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 15 years in prison.

“I’m not surprised when you see a situation like this, oftentimes a lawsuit is the result,” said Joe Dorman, CEO of the Oklahoma Institute for Child Advocacy.

The lawsuit states, ‘DHS’s negligent and wrongful conduct was the direct and proximate cause of’ the kidnapping.

It also alleges that DHS hired Faison despite a background of fraud in another state. (Full article.)

And here is a recent story about the pastor of a California megachurch who is being sued for child sex abuse in Romania.

As I reported earlier this week, Evangelical Christians are known for setting up orphanages in Romania to sexually traffick children, and Erika Kirk started an orphanage there when she was just a teenager, working together with the U.S. military. (See: Erika Kirk’s Evangelical Christian Orphanage in Romania was in Area Linked to Child Trafficking).

Lawsuits accuse former California megachurch pastor of child sex abuse in Romania

The complaints detail sexual assault, inappropriate touching and abuse in which children were made to kneel on walnut shells or were tied to their beds.

A former Riverside megachurch pastor has been accused of sexually abusing and trafficking children for years at a shelter he ran in Bucharest, according to lawsuits filed by two Romanian men in U.S. District Court in California.

The complaints, filed Tuesday by 33-year-old Marian Barbu and 40-year-old Mihai-Constantin Petcu, said former Harvest Christian Fellowship pastor and missionary Paul Havsgaard severely abused them and dozens of other children at the shelter over eight years. The lawsuits also name the church’s founder and senior pastor, Greg Laurie, a well-known evangelist and author, as well as other senior church leaders, saying they failed to prevent abuse.

The lawsuits accuse Havsgaard of luring struggling street kids with fast food and the promise of shelter and education. The men are “hurt, angry and still suffering from PTSD and social difficulties,” said Jef McAllister, a London-based lawyer with the law firm representing Barbu and Petcu. (Full article.)

Evangelical Christians, Zionism, and child sex abuse – they all happen together.

Welcome to the Christian United States of America, run by pedophile billionaires and politicians, and Christian pedophile pastors and priests.
