JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — A Westside pastor faced his congregation for the first time since a member and former employee of his church made a disturbing confession at a Jacksonville City Council meeting Tuesday night.
Roy Bay said he molested boys for years in St. Louis public bathrooms as he was speaking out against an expansion of Jacksonville’s human rights ordinance to include the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community.
More than 200 churchgoers streamed through Evangel Temple’s doors Wednesday night.
Bay was one of them.
Action News Jax’s cameras were not allowed inside the church, although the church leadership welcomed our crew to attend the service and observe.
