Voice of the Faithful

Rebuilding Trust Takes Many Voices It’s time to return responsibility to Catholicism I believe that the bishops of the Catholic Church who knowingly allowed children to be sexually abused by clergy must be held responsible for their roles in these crimes over the past 50 years. For this reason I call on:
Check all petitions you support:
	Pope John Paul II: To meet with an international delegation of victims/survivors of clergy sexual abuse to begin reconciliation on behalf of the entire community of the Catholic Church.
	Pope John Paul II: To hold those bishops responsible who knowingly transferred sexually abusive clergy; to accept resignations when offered; and to call for resignations where appropriate.
	Each US Bishop: To disclose details of their oversight in transferring abusive clergy and clergy who had credible allegations against them.
	Each US Bishop: To cooperate with civil authorities in investigating sexual abuse crimes committed by clergy, as well as any negligence or cover-up by those who were responsible for overseeing actual or accused perpetrators.
