Churches Failed to Report Abuse | Harrisburg News
Description
A Pennsylvania girl revealed sexual abuse to a counselor tied to three religious groups — Shepherd’s Fold Counseling Ministry, Richfield Life Ministries Church, and Cedar Grove Brethren in Christ Church — but the abuse went unreported. Months later, she was raped by the same abuser. The lawsuit accuses the organizations of negligence, lack of proper safeguards, and failure to act — claiming their inaction may have prevented the later assault. The victim seeks punitive damages, alleging reckless disregard for her safety. One church has acknowledged the suit but declined further comment, noting the claims remain unproven.
