RICHMOND – Founding pastor Geronimo Aguilar has resigned from his position at the Richmond Outreach Center amidst his on-going legal troubles in Texas.
Aguilar, known as “Pastor G,” and three other pastors’ resignations were accepted by the ROC’s board of directors Wednesday, according to a release on the church’s website.
Aguilar is facing multiple felony charges in Texas in two alleged cases of child sex abuse.
Also resigning is executive pastor Jason Helmlinger, who is facing a misdemeanor charge of threatening a former ROC pastor who spoke to 8News about the allegations against Aguilar. Two others also resigned Wednesday: Pastor G’s brother Matthew Aguilar and Pastor Andrew Delgado, neither of whom are facing any charges.
