charter for the protection of children and young people
Cardinal celebrates Mass recognizing 20th anniversary of charter
In his homily on the feast of Christ the King, Cardinal Cupich said the church must be like the good thief in the Gospel of Luke who listens to Jesus on the cross, repents and asks forgiveness and has the courage to ask Jesus to remember him.
Protecting God’s children
The approach of Catholic Schools Week gives us an opportunity to revisit the efforts the Archdiocese of Chicago has been taking to keep our children safe.
Archdiocese’s abuse-prevention efforts date back to 1990s
One thing that has become clear since the sexual abuse of minors by Catholic clergy made headlines again this summer is that many people don’t know the steps the church is already taking to prevent abuse, and to investigate allegations when they arise.
Decades-old clerical abuse documents made public
The documents concerning 30 archdiocesan priests who have been accused of abusing minors at various times during the last half century were made public on Jan. 21 by Jeffrey Anderson, a lawyer representing several of the abuse survivors. All of the documents relate to cases that date back many years, in some cases, decades. Ninety-five percent of the misconduct occurred prior to 1988. Today no priest with even one substantiated allegation of sexual abuse of a minor serves in ministry in the Archdiocese of Chicago.
