A Minnesota woman is suing Zion Lutheran Church, saying she was abused by a youth minister there when she was a minor.

The woman, identified as Jane Doe 115, says she went to the Hopkins church while growing up, and because of that had developed a trust with the church and its members, according to a news release from Noaker Law.

But from 1974-77, the lawsuit says, Jane Doe was sexually abused by a youth minister who was a member of the church. She was between 11 and 14 years old at the time, according to the complaint.

Zion Lutheran Church told BringMeTheNews Monday it had no comment.
