About this sermon
Subscribe to our newsletter here: https://mailchi.mp/ewtn/vatican Over the last two decades, the Church has been confronted with a sad reality. In many dioceses around the world, abuse cases came to light that shocked the public in the same way as church leadership. As the prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of Faith, Pope Benedict XVI started a systematic battle against abuse behind church walls. His successor Pope Francis continued this work. The Church has done a lot to prevent abuse in the future. The Pontifical Commission for the Protection of Minors is a living testament to this. Pope Francis founded it in 2014. EWTN’s Vatican Bureau Chief, Andreas Thonhauser, sat down with the Commission’s Project Manager, Emer McCarthy to hear more about the Commission’s important work and progress over the last years.
