Child molesters are being protected over children in the Christian Reformed Church. Children who are molested in this church denomination, even children who have been victims of a child pornography ring in South Holland, are being told not to go to police because — in the words of the CRC — "to go to police is revenge and revenge is only for God." Children who assert themselves are threatened, even using police departments in key Christian Reformed — Dutch Reformed — communities such as South Holland and Grand Rapids.

Schools in this community such as Illinana Christian High School in Lansing, Illinois did not make teachers who molested children register as sex offenders. One of the molesters that the church protected at the expense has now molested 97 children in Illinois.

Additionally, Jerry Dykstra, the executive director, has helped protect missionaries who have molested children in other countries. I would suggest that any nation that has CRC missionaries in their country expel them and issue an arrest warrant for Jerry Dykstra.

To countries who have US Military bases, this church has also covered for sex offenders who entered the military including one man from Lowell, Indiana who was deployed to Iraq and raped Muslim women while he was over there. He was protected for raping a girl in South Holland, Illinois by the church and never charged with a crime.

This denomination allegedly has an abuse prevention program but even this program discourages victims from going to police. The church will say they do not have direct knowledge of these various incidents, However, a woman named Hilda Ragon who played a major role in the cover up in Illinois — a former teacher from Roseland Christian School named Hilda Ragon who was taken to court for physically abusing one of her students —

What I have found out about this church from a journalist friend at ABC News doing research on this has shocked me. I feel as if the Christian Reformed Church does not care if my kids are in danger.

Parents every where should be calling their local FBI office and congressperson to ask for an investigation.
