‘MACON, Ga. — A Georgia man has been sentenced to 10 years in prison after pleading guilty in February to sexually assaulting a girl while a missionary in Uganda.
U.S. District Judge Marc. T. Treadwell sentenced Eric Tuininga, 45, of Milledgeville last week. He was ordered to pay $20,000 in restitution and spend a lifetime on supervised release as a registered sex offender after getting out of prison.
Tuininga previously working as a minister at Immanuel’s Reformed Church in Salem.
Prosecutors have said that an American citizen had contacted the U.S. embassy in Kampala, Uganda, in June 2019 to tell officials that Tuininga was having sex with Ugandan girls as young as 14 who were under the care of the U.S.-based Orthodox Presbyterian Church in Mbale, Uganda.
Tuininga was one of the church’s ministers. Authorities said they found Tuininga had already returned to the United States, but federal agents identified the minor and kept investigating. Tuininga admitted to the conduct, with prosecutors saying he told them that the victim would often visit the church property in Mbale.
The recommended sentence for Tuininga was seven to nine years, The Telegraph of Macon reported. But Treadwell sentenced him to a decade in federal prison after hearing testimony from the victim’s caretaker and some of Tuininga’s family members. Tuininga’s defense attorney had objected to some of the evidence at sentencing and requested a sentence of five years.
“I want to recognize the true bravery displayed by the Ugandan girl for speaking out when she was assaulted by a trusted person of power from another country, courageously seeking justice across continents,” U.S. Attorney Peter D. Leary said in a statement. “Law enforcement — both abroad and here at home — took on a challenging international case.”
Mark Bube, general secretary of the denomination’s committee of foreign missions, has said Tuininga’s misconduct was reported by other Orthodox Presbyterian missionaries in Uganda and that he was removed from missionary work in 2019. Bube said Tuininga was later removed entirely from ministry and excommunicated from the church based in Willow Grove, Pennsylvania.
Tuininga joined the church from a separate but affiliated denomination in Oregon. A website chronicling Tuininga’s work in Uganda said he began working there in 2012 after working at Immanuel’s Reformed Church in Salem.’https://www.yahoo.com/news/former-salem-minister-gets-10-173910997.html

Proverbs 14:34 Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.
‘One of the RAGBRAI events in Mason City turned a few heads. A drag show followed the Sugar Ray concert in Mason City, drawing mixed reactions.
Some individuals enjoyed the show while others from the community lamented the fact it happened.
It does not appear the show was heavily advertised based on comments on social media or through the event’s website or social media pages.
On the RAGBRAI Mason City website, concerts by Don Felder and Sugar Ray are promoted. Entertainment by 13 on Seven, Brad Morgan and Danny Grause is also listed. And there’s also entertainment at the beverage garden, but nothing is listed for a drag show.
The Iowa Standard reached out to the Mason City Administrator, a person called Aaron Burnett. We asked if the drag show in Mason City during RAGBRAI was an official event put on by the city or something else as information about the event online is scarce.
Here was Burnett’s response:
“The city of Mason City was proud to be a sponsor and support the very successful RAGBRAI Mason City overnight which hosted approximately 20,000 riders and support personnel from across the world. The city was a key sponsor and the overnight was a collaboration of many entities including hundreds of volunteers, the city of Mason City, Visit Mason City and Main Street Mason City. The goal of RAGBRAI Mason City was to provide a unique experience that welcomed all of RAGBRAI to our community and offered something for everyone to connect with during the night.
“The show closed out the night and brought people into the Plaza area, and away from the Main Stage area, to allow for teardown and cleanup after Sugar Ray’s performance.”
We asked Burnett if minors were allowed to attend the drag show. We have not received a response, but will provide an update when we hear from Burnett.’https://theiowastandard.com/38226-2/
IMAGINE ATTENDING AN EVENT WITH THESE TWO? CAN YOU IMAGINE THAT OTHERS AT THIS EVENT DIDN’T THINK THESE TWO WERE NOT NORMAL AND IF THEY DIDN’T THINK THAT, THEY TOO WEREN’T “NORMAL!!! AMERICA IS AT A CRISIS POINT!
Is there any hope of salvaging the West? Genesis 18:20And the LORD said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous; That cry the Lord spoke about in Genesis 18 is still occurring and is still heard in Heaven. Just as Sodom paid a price for their grievous sin so Australia and the West will pay for theirs.
Proverbs 4:14, 15 Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not in the way of evil men. 15 Avoid it, pass not by it, turn from it, and pass away.
‘PM&C is proud to be awarded bronze employer status in the 2022 Australian Workplace Equality Index (AWEI), one of only six Commonwealth Government departments/agencies to be recognised.
The AWEI is Australia’s national benchmarking instrument for LGBTQ inclusion within Australian workplaces. Awards are based on the rigorous assessment of evidence submitted annually for the AWEI by PM&C’s Pride Network and People Branch.
“This is a great achievement, of which the Department is rightly proud,” reflected John Reid PSM, PM&C Pride Champion.
“It reflects the hard work done to date, but leaves us plenty of room for improvement and continued commitment to making PM&C a great place to work for everyone; a place where everyone can bring their whole selves to work,” saidJohn Reid PSM.
