A TV preacher who urged his American flock to help him buy a $65 million private jet is ploughing on with a summer visit to Scotland - despite a growing clamour for the trip to be cancelled. 

Televangelist Creflo Dollar is due to appear in Edinburgh, Aberdeen and Glasgow this June as part of a whistle-stop tour of the country organised by the “contemporary apostolic movement” Destiny Evangelical Church. 

The US pastor has previously come under fire for his lavish lifestyle amid reports he owns Rolls-Royces, a private jet and real estate worth millions. 

But his Scottish engagements have attracted a hail of criticism from one church leader who has urged the Destiny Church to “withdraw its invitation”.

The Free Kirk’s Moderator Rev David Robertson has sent a personal letter to Destiny Church as his looked to escalate his opposition to the events.

Dundee-based Mr Robertson said: “To Destiny and others who have invited Dollar, in the name of God and for the sake of Christ, withdraw your invitation.


“If you really care about the Gospel in Scotland take courage and turn away from this false teaching.
