Preacher charged for child molestation back on pulpit

Walter Masocha, 51, self-styled ‘prophet’ and founder of the Agape for All Nations church, dodged a jail term earlier this year for groping a deaconess and molesting a schoolgirl.

The Zimbabwe-born preacher molested members while leading the Agape for All Nations church, it has been said.

He regularly invited women worshippers to private “surgeries” held in his bedroom but banned their husbands from attending, the Daily Record reported.

After his conviction, the Stirling church said they “apologised for any harm done to those affected” and announced the 51-year-old was suspended.

But the preacher is still a central figure in the organisation. A video posted on Agape’s website shows Masocha front and centre during a church event in July, just a month after he was sentenced to a community payback order.
