ANNAPOLIS ROYAL — A former Nova Scotia man who was sexually assaulted by an Anglican priest says he was shocked to learn his abuser had again been performing duties at a small Annapolis Royal church.
The priest resigned Thursday in the wake of the controversy.
In an interview from his Ottawa home, Glenn Johnson said he was “flabbergasted” that Rev. Wayne Lynch had been performing duties at St. Luke’s Anglican Church before his resignation.
“I would think that the church would know better.”
Johnson, 48, was sexually assaulted by Lynch in the late 1970s while serving as an altar boy at All Saints Anglican Church in Brooklyn, Queens County. He was 13 at the time.
