The Richmond Times Dispatch reports that a Virginia church has closed its doors, but not for the same reasons other congregations in the Commonwealth have been shuttered. It was not a declining or aging congregation or financial matters. Victory church has ceased to exist because the pastor has been accused of s$x crimes against a minor and now faces six additional charges.

Unfortunately, a Florida restaurant in this genre was recently closed down. I frequently write about restaurant closures, and I can honestly say that I have never seen a violation like the one that caused the closure.
