A disgraced former Hillsong church pastor claims he is 'stronger and happier' than ever after launching a new church. Pat 'Pasquale' Mesiti created Reborn Ministries for churchgoers who have lost their way amid the coronavirus pandemic. The self-confessed sex addict was caught sleeping with prostitutes in Darlinghurst and was stripped of his authority to preach in the Hillsong church. Mr Mesitis launched Reborn Ministries on June 12 with his new wife Christine, with his teachings aimed at worshippers looking to 'regain their sanity' in the world. Mr Mesiti pleaded guilty to one count of common assault in February 2016 after attacking his ex-wife Andrea in her northwest Sydney home.
