Ex-Gloriavale member left feeling sick after leader’s public apology | Stuff.co.nz
A former member of Gloriavale says an apology from leader Howard Temple for historic sexual abuse in the community made him feel physically sick. Temple told Gloriavale members he was sorry for their pain and suffering and admitted past leaders didn’t keep them safe. The public apology was requested after the Royal Commission into abuse in July 2024. But some who have left the community say it was hollow and merely spin. Senior reporter Juliet Speedy has the story.
