GALLIPOLIS, Ohio (WSAZ) — A trust betrayed — that was the feeling in Gallia County Wednesday night where a man of the church is now in jail, charged with sexual assault.
Police believe there may be more than one victim.
The news is really hitting home for church members at Simpson Chapel United Methodist.
“It’s a beautiful church, and it has a lot of beautiful people in it,” said Ginny Showalter of Rio Grande, Ohio.
Showwalter is still proud to call herself a member. She’s just ashamed of what her pastor’s accused of doing.
