We attach this message of our sister organization We are Church International
Dear Sisters and Brothers of We Are Church International,
The International Circle of RCWP Bishops met by Skype on August 24, 218, and have ratified a statement drafted at that meeting re: the appalling findings of the Pennsylvania, USA Grand Juries that over 1,000 children had been abused by more than 300 priests in 6 dioceses. Moreover, this statement speaks to the worldwide crisis of failure of accountability within the RC hierarchy concerning sex abuse. This document is now being published widely throughout the world. It is in pdf format. We ask that you please consider distributing this document as widely as you can among your membership and your worship and social action communities. Many thanks!
Blessings to all,
Andrea Johnson
