St Augustine's Anglican Church in Adelaide puts stop to red light activity in its area

Posted on August 17, 2012 by Kendall Harmon

Prostitutes have been using a Woodville Gardens church garage to solicit men.

Father Graham Head said the St Augustine of Canterbury Anglican Church was aware for some time that women had been using the grounds surrounding the church for the illegal activity.

Father Head said the tenant, who is now being evicted, denied all knowledge of the activity. He did not suggest she was involved but said she was given an eviction notice in April so the house can be used by the church.

    If the priest knew about the activity why didn’t he stop or report it sooner? Something must be wrong in this report.

    I guess it would have been a violation of a GC resolution and hence a Canon 4 violation. It is clearly discriminating on the basis of sexual preference.
