What vow of celibacy?

A Louisiana priest had sex with two women on the altar of his church, police said.

The Rev. Travis Clark, 37, was removed from the priesthood last week, but the New Orleans Archdiocese left out the details of his “obscenity of women,” local CBS affiliate WWL reported. Police, however, had no such reservations.

Cops said a passerby filmed Clark half-naked with two women and several sex toys on the altar of Saints Peter and Paul Catholic Church on Sept. 30, according to WWL. The passerby sent the video to police, who arrived and arrested Clark along with two women, Melissa Cheng, 23, and Mindy Dixon, 41.

Investigators said the church sex was being recorded on a mobile phone, NOLA.com reported. Dixon is reportedly an adult film star who works for hire as a dominatrix. She wrote on social media about heading to New Orleans to “defile a house of God."

Police did not say if the three had left room for Jesus.

Clark, Cheng and Dixon were charged with having sex in a public place — namely the altar, according to WWL. They’ve all posted bail and are no longer detained.

Clark was ordained in 2013 and became the priest at Sts. Peter and Paul in Pearl River, La., across Lake Pontchartrain from downtown New Orleans, in 2019, WWL reported. He had also recently taken over as chaplain at a local high school after the previous chaplain was accused of sexually abusing a minor.
