Stephen J. Wasko, 54, of 66 East Broadway Ave., Milford, was suspended from the church on July 2 after allegations of sexual assault on minors surfaced.

Several cars were in the church parking lot Monday evening but none of the parishioners would comment on the situation.

According to police, the victims were not church members and the alleged abuse is believed to have occurred outside of the church.

Wasko was charged with two counts of fourth-degree sexual assault and two counts of risk of injury to a minor.

He was released on $100,000 bond for a Sept. 7 court date.

Wasko is no longer authorized to do ministry in or on behalf of the United Church of Christ.
