A long-time pastor of the 101-year-old Second Baptist Church of Wheaton, Illinois, has been dismissed from his job after several women accused him of improperly touching them in a gym, according to church members.
Church service went on as usual Sunday, with no mention of a meeting the night before in which the congregation was asked to decide the fate of Rev. Andre Allen, according to members.
"He is no longer a preacher there. We voted him out," according to an unidentified woman who answered the phone at the church Sunday.
Allen has led Second Baptist for more than 22 years and has been a leader on civil rights issues in DuPage County.
