The Highway of Holiness Church in Oklahoma City, Okla., recently invited a convicted sex offender, Dale Hoffert, to attend their Children’s Crusade event.
“I was upset. I was sick to my stomach,” mom Tanya Cotton told News 9 (video below).
“You should send your kids to church and feel safe about it,” added Cotton. “His past is not good with children. Do not be tempting him with our kids.”
Cotton saw Hoffert on a cell phone video that was shot by her 10-year-old son in the children’s church event.
Hoffert used to be the youth pastor at the church, but was convicted of forcible oral sodomy in 2007.
