Heard over the weekend he's still over the church but is not actively ministering.
Was told he moved to Alabama. I know Swaggart is still over his church but it seems his ministry took a hell of a lot more of a beating over his infidelity.
Is it just a different standard between the two organizations with the disparity between how the congregations reacted to the news of infidelity for both pastors?

Different age where moral values aren't as important?

Anyone who thinks he isn't still receiving payments from HPC (or some related LLC) needs a reality check.

quote:

Rizzo and his pastrix wife are merely moving on to new ministry because:

“We feel God is moving us into a new season,” he said without disclosing what future plans the couple might have…

He thanked his wife, calling her “my rock,” adding, “To those I have disappointed, I want to say forgive me. I’m sorry if I’ve ever disappointed you as pastor.”

“Two months ago,” Rizzo said, “I let my spirit, soul and body get depleted and did not make good choices as a dad, as a husband, as a leader.” He said they, as a couple with three children, are now on a road of “healing and hope.”

“To keep our family as a priority and to continue keeping on with what Jesus wants us to do, we feel it’s best to step down and resign as your pastors today,” Rizzo said with emotion rising in his voice. “This is our choice — no one has asked us to do this.” (source)


Move along, there's nothing to see here. Or is there?



C'mon in ...





The lord giveth and the lord taketh away.

You don't think the Landlord is due the rent? He owns the place.

I think he shows up every Monday morning to empty and do maintenance on the reverse ATMs.

where the hell did you see this in my post

I saw it posted here that he was out of the business and wanting to start something else somewhere else.
I was surprised to hear about his continued involvement with HPC.
That is all.

They live a modest life, don't judge their success!



To respond to the OP, the place took a slight hit, but nothing like Swaggart. It's been laughable the sweeping and crawfishing done by people who go to that church.

I have family that went then up and stopped going when the scandal happened with the reasoning, "we just needed a change of scenery." They will not throw that dude under the bus. So I asked the question, "Does it have to do with what happened with Dino?" Only to get a big load of bullshite that made absolutely no sense.

That house is incredibly tacky. It looks like the kind of new money nonsense people buy when they want to show off.

Which is the deeper scandal here? I remember the "I have sinned" performance pretty well. LINK

LLC's still owned by Dino Rizzo even though he's with a "sister church" in birmingham.

Sounds about right. I to have family that goes there and they've just said "Thank goodness Dino had enough sense to create a great core of people that could step up and take over or the church would have just sunk with the captain of the ship"

This is the problem with non denominational churches. They are essentially owned by the pastors. They are family businesses . Any wise believer of jesus should not be giving them one red penny much less attending

completely delusional people there. they want to believe that god guided dino into a "new season"

HPC and the new alabama church all use the same line. it's very creepy.

Who are these chicks that are willing to frick a pastor? Just seems like a low life thing to do.
