Justin Bieber's rumored girlfriend, Hailey Baldwin was spotted chatting with the Hillsong leader, whose father sexually abused a boy.
Stephen Baldwin's daughter was seen exchanging conversation with the Hillsong leader, Brian Houston on Thursday. Baldwin, along with rumored boyfriend Bieber joined the five day annual convention as delegates in Australia.
According to officials, Hailey Baldwin looked so calm and carefree while talking to the Hillsong's Pastor Brian Houston and without a qualm about the Pastor's Father's pedophile history.
Brian's late father, Frank molested a boy in Sydney in the 1970s. After the pastor found out about the abuse, he allegedly covered up his father. The cover up made Brian fail to immediately report the incident.
Brian claimed that upon confirming the allegations, he did not alert the police because at that time the boy was an adult and did not want any investigation. He also believed that the boy, who was 36 year old could have gone to the police if he was truly a victim.
He said, "You had a situation where this was the first time I had ever heard about my father's abuses. There was victim, a survivor, who was adamant he did not want a police investigation and he didn't want a church investigation."
But during the arraignment at the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse, he admitted that his father was guilty of sexual abusing other children. He then apologized to the victims and their families.
He also revealed to the congregation, his late father tried to buy more than 3000 victim's forgiveness.
During Justin Bieber's rocky career, when he was described as a "bad boy," the pop idol decided to join the grop to become a Hillsong Church goer, and he was baptized at Hillsong NYC in December.
After joining the church, Justin was even quoted saying "I'm glad to know him. He's changed my life," talking about Hillsong's Pastor Carl.
