Moravian church president and vice-president resign amid sex scandal

President of the Moravian Church in Jamaica Dr Paul Gardner and Vice-President Jermaine Gibson have resigned.
The development coincides with the sex scandal now gripping the church in Jamaica.
The scandal began with the December 28 arrest of 64-year-old Rupert Clarke, the pastor at the Nazareth Moravian Church in Manchester.
Clarke has since been charged with having sex with a minor and the police say he will soon face additional charges.
The Moravian Sex Scandal deepened this week when a former minister of the church released a trail of emails contradicting claims by president Paul Gardner that he had no previous knowledge of allegations of misconduct by Clarke.
