Down in Guadalajara, Mexico, an underage girl was groomed and raped by a leader of a Mission to the World (MTW) planted church. This rape occurred in the home of a MTW missionary who used his influence to silence the victim and her family.

But this isn’t just the account of a rape.

It also includes embezzlement, money-laundering, swindling retirement money from a senior citizen, government fraud, adultery, racism and the destruction and slandering of anyone willing to speak up about what is happening.

This is also not just a matter of local corruption by a few Presbyterian Church of America (PCA)/MTW missionaries in a foreign city. The MTW director over all of North and South America, a man named Steve Robertson, has directly helped cover-up the rape, theft and laundering of MTW donations (along with other sins and civil crimes) further victimizing the victims “in the name of Jesus”.

Now, an entire PCA presbytery (Nashville) has become complicit in the rape-apology along with even Tim LeCroy, the chairman of the PCA's Domestic Abuse and Sexual Assault (DASA) committee. Mr. LeCroy, has given moving speeches about sexual assault to the PCA but was suddenly uninterested to do or say anything when it was a Latina minor that was raped in the home of a white American missionary.

This is a plea for help.

The PCA has blessed so many lives. Is there no one who loves the PCA enough to be willing to stand up against the victimization and injustice being perpetrated by MTW and its leadership in the name of the PCA?

“Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them.”

MTW and the Rape of an Underage Girl

“Mishandling of spiritual abuse by a church and/or presbytery produces very serious repercussions for the victims, for the congregation, and for the honor of God’s name. The emotional, physical, and spiritual harm done to victims of abusive authority is further compounded when those charged with caring for God’s people fail to respond adequately to their cries for help.”
