[Anonymous Testimony] This Needs to Be Investigated: Concerns Involving MWAs and Minors

The following account was shared privately. Minor identifying details have been adjusted to help protect the source's identity while preserving the substance of the information.

The following reports concern alleged misconduct involving several MWAs. Not all of the information was personally witnessed, and some details remain unconfirmed.

Incident 1

A MWA was reportedly involved in an inappropriate relationship with a 16 year old girl.

The details afterward are unclear. The last information received was that the MWA may have stopped serving or left the ministry, but this has not been independently confirmed.

Incident 2

Another MWA reportedly began dating a member when she was 17 or 18. She has since turned 19.

There are rumors that she is pregnant by him. This has not been independently verified and should be treated as unconfirmed.

Ongoing concern

There are also reports of multiple other MWAs in the same district engaging in inappropriate behavior toward minors around 15 to 17 years old, including flirting, manipulation, and repeatedly crossing boundaries in ways that may constitute grooming.

The full extent of the situation is unclear, but the reports involve adults in positions of religious authority and appear to involve more than one individual.

There are also concerns that some adults around these situations have been gossiping about the girls instead of addressing the behavior or protecting them.

Location

Incident 2 and the ongoing concerns are associated with the Bauang locale, now reportedly under the Agoo district following a recent reorganization. This should be independently verified.

Incident 1 reportedly occurred in another locale within the same district.

Names and other identifying details are being withheld.

Please focus on the safety of the minors involved and on verifying the reports.
