Please join us in praying that Pope Leo reads these letters with an open heart and takes concrete action inspired by the words and wisdom of these survivors.

A group of sexual abuse survivors in the Awake community has written deeply personal letters to #popeleo describing their experience of harm by Church leaders and their fervent hopes for the #CatholicChurch
Good news! We have received confirmation from Bishop Luis Manuel Ali Herrera, the highest-ranking staff official of the Pontifical Commission for the Protection of Minors, that he personally delivered our survivors' letters directly to #PopeLeo
“It would be healing for you to write a pastoral letter to those sexually abused by Catholic leaders, both those abused as children and adults and to offer guidance for bishops and priests in how to help those with these types of wounds and religious triggers.”
Their voices give witness not only to the painful reality of abuse, but also to the Holy Spirit active in their lives and in our ministry of accompaniment.
