Church to out ex-member's 'sexually immoral relationship'

Grace Community Church in Mandarin plans to tell it on the mountain – or at least preach it from the pulpit – on Sunday, Jan. 4. And it’s not something former church member Rebecca Hancock wants her children or anyone else to hear.

The Jacksonville church informed Hancock, 49, this month it will make her “sexually immoral relationship” with her boyfriend public at that service.

Hancock, who is divorced, said she left the church in October because members confronted her over it. On Wednesday, she also sent the church a letter officially resigning – hoping to stop the action so her children, who attend services there, would not have to face her embarrassment.
