Letter of His Holiness Pope Francis to the People of God
During the past few weeks, there has been shocking news concerning the sexual abuse of minors, of efforts by bishops to conceal the truth and revelations concerning immoral behavior by a cardinal, that has rocked our Church and far beyond. All of us are profoundly shocked because of the evil done to the victims of clergy sexual abuse.
Our Holy Father, Pope Francis, has issued a forceful and challenging letter to the People of God on August, 20, 2018, addressing the crimes and sins by clergy and the failure of Church leaders to protect children, minors and the vulnerable. This letter should serve as an examination of conscience for all of us and be a path forward.
The letter is available on our diocesan web site or by clicking on the following link: http://w2.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/letters/2018/documents/papa-francesco_20180820_lettera-popolo-didio.html
