They say that the devil works hard, but Kris Jenner works harder. But could she have somehow found the time amongst managing her children’s careers to somehow establish a church-based money-laundering scheme? One TikToker certainly seems to think so.


The TikToker, who calls herself Mrs. Dow Jones, but whose real name is Haley Sacks, shared a video this week about the California Community Church, an evangelical church that she says Jenner co-founded in 2009 with a man she met at a Starbucks. As Sacks explains, churches are exempt from paying federal, state and local taxes, and their financial records are closed — two reasons why the Church of Scientology was so determined to be recognized as an actual church by the IRS.

Sacks goes on to add that Kim Kardashian, Jenner’s most famous offspring, has previously told reporters that she gives 10 percent of her earnings to the church every year — if Kim earns $80 million a year, that’s $8 million for the church. If all of her sisters are doing the same, Sacks estimates that would equal about $50 million in tithings annually.


Sacks’ argument that the church is a money-laundering scheme relies on the assumption that the church’s income is incredibly high while the church itself is incredibly modest, and nothing like the grandiose cathedrals and buildings other religions, even Scientology, are known for. What really seals the deal, according to Sacks, is the fact that the Kardashian-Jenner children are never seen worshipping there — instead, they’re seen attending Hillsong, or Kanye West’s Sunday Service.


For the church’s part, it goes out of its way to explain on its website that Kris Jenner “generously paid the rent for the theater space where the congregation met and also paid Pastor Brad’s salary” and “has not served on the leadership Board of the church, nor does she desire to.”


The aforementioned Pastor Brad, who had previously had to resign from his post after an adultery scandal, is the man Jenner met at a Starbucks — one he was working at. He has appeared on the Kardashian’s reality show in the past, seen officiating at the wedding of Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom.


The California Community Church certainly has all the appearances of a church — services are held every Sunday at 10 a.m., and promptly shared to small audiences on YouTube and Facebook. The church claims its post-COVID attendance numbers are somewhere around 600, which would make it eight times larger than the average congregation size in the U.S.


Since it is a church, and comes with tax-exempt status and closed financial records, it’s difficult to know definitively whether the Kardashian-Jenners continue to support it financially, just how much the family donates each year and what that money is used for — though, as Sacks notes, none of that cash has been spent on moving the church out of its current location in a Conejo Valley strip mall.


As for determining anything else, that would take an act of God — or I guess, Kris Jenner.
