The assistant pastor of a church in Thornton faces charges of sexual assault on a child.

He's charged with sexual assault on a child, sexual assault on a child as a pattern of conduct and sexual assault on a child by a person in a position of trust.

Wyatt surrendered to the Adams County Sheriff’s Office on Monday afternoon. His bond is set at $20,000.
