  • 2009 Additional Actions for the Protection of Children
    ADDITIONAL ACTIONS 2009 2 ADDITIONAL ACTIONS During the 2009 annual compliance audit as with previous audits, the arch/dioceses/eparchies were asked if they had any ―Additional Actions‖ for the protection of children which they would like to share with the auditors. The wording on the audit form is stated as follows: The following is submitted as reflective of this diocese‟s/eparchy‟s advancement in the implementation of the Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People. Each example took place during the current audit period, and exceeds what is required by the Charter. (Describe the activity, providing as much detail as possible, to include the nature of the situation, what the diocese/eparchy has done, and how it has been received by the intended audience. The action must have occurred between the first day of the last compliance audit to the first day of the current compliance audit, and will be verified by the Auditors. Please limit your response to one or two paragraphs for each action.) What is reflected as an additional action is what the arch/diocese/eparchy provided to the auditors during their audit. These additional actions are a further continuation of the efforts by the arch/dioceses/eparchies to reach out to victims to help with their healing and reconciliation and to keep the promise to protect child. So we all can learn from one another, following is a listing by arch/diocese/eparchy of the additional actions submitted to the auditors in 2009. Diocese of Albany, New York 1. The Albany Diocese now requires all volunteers who are minors to read and sign the Youth Code of Conduct.

He celebrated Mass Nov. 30 in Yangon’s Saint Mary Cathedral. Thousands of young people filled the gardens surrounding the cathedral, hoping for a close-up encounter with the pope. In his homily, Pope Francis, whose 81st birthday was less than three weeks away, said he wanted to speak to the young as a grand- father. The Bible, he told them, “asks us to think about our place in God’s plan” and to proclaim God’s love and mercy. “As messengers of this good news, you are ready to bring a word of hope to the church, to your own country, and to the wid- er world.” he said. “You are ready to bring good news to your suffer- ing brothers and sisters who need your prayers and your solidari- Pope Francis greets young people after celebrating Mass with youths Nov. 30 at St. Mary Cathedral in Yangon, Myanmar. ty, but also your enthusiasm for CNS photo/L’Osservatore Romano via Reuters. human rights, for justice and for the growth of that love and peace prayer.
