  • The Nightmare on 17Th Street

    The Nightmare on 17Th Street

    SEXUAL ABUSE OF MINORS BY CLERGY IN THE ARCHDIOCESE OF PHILADELPHIA OR THE NIGHTMARE ON 17TH STREET Thomas P. Doyle, J.C.D., C.A.D.C. February 20, 2017 1 Introductory Remarks The Archdiocese of Philadelphia is one of the oldest ecclesiastical jurisdictions in the United States. It was erected as a diocese in 1808 and elevated to an archdiocese in 1875. It has long had the reputation of being one of the most staunchly “Catholic” and conservative dioceses in the country. The Archdiocese also has the very dubious distinction of having been investigated by not one but three grand juries in the first decade of the new millennium. The first investigation (Grand Jury 1, 2001-2002) was prompted by the District Attorney’s desire to find factual information about sexual abuse by Catholic clergy in the Archdiocese. The second grand jury (Grand Jury 2, 2003-2005) continued the investigation that the first could not finish before its term expired. The third grand jury investigation (Grand Jury 3, 2010-2011) was triggered by reports to the District Attorney that sexual abuse by priests was still being reported in spite of assurances by the Cardinal Archbishop (Rigali) after the second Grand Jury Report was published that all children in the Archdiocese were safe because there were no priest sexual abusers still in ministry. Most of what the three Grand Juries discovered about the attitude and practices of the archbishop and his collaborators could be found in nearly every archdiocese and diocese in the United States. Victims are encouraged to approach the Church’s victim assistance coordinators and assured of confidentiality and compassionate support yet their stories and other information are regularly shared with the Church’s attorneys in direct violation of the promise made by the Church.

  • Allentown Farewell Homily Most Reverend John O. Barres, STD

    Allentown Farewell Homily Most Reverend John O. Barres, STD

    1 Allentown Farewell Homily Most Reverend John O. Barres, STD, JCL Bishop-designate Diocese of Rockville Centre (Long Island, New York) January 22, 2017 In Matthew 4, we see that John the Baptist’s arrest and suffering are linked to the image of Jesus as the Suffering Servant described in Isaiah. John the Baptist prepares the Way of the Lord and his suffering and martyrdom prepare the way for Christ’s own sacrificial death on the Cross. To show his love for the Baptist, Jesus echoes his words: “Repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” How easy it can be to get comfortable with and increasingly blind to our daily patterns of pride, envy, anger, lust, gluttony, sloth and greed. But the Word of God is ever new, powerful and unpredictable. We have heard this phrase “Repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand” many times before but when we open the horizons of our lives to the Holy Spirit, we hear it new every time. Today, for instance, we hear this soul-stirring call to repentance at a unique moment in our marriage and family, our life as a priest, religious or deacon, our life as a young person trying to discern our future. We hear it at a unique moment of the Church’s history with Pope Francis inspiring all of us to touch the wounds of Christ in suffering humanity and reminding us that “families transform the world and history” with Christ’s love and mercy. And we hear it together as I am called from the fishing nets that we have cast together in Schuylkill, Carbon, Berks, Northampton and Lehigh Counties in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to the nets of Nassau and Suffolk Counties in New York and the rough surf of the Atlantic Ocean.
