3 SAINT LAWRENCE CATHOLIC CHURCH 6222 Franconia Road, Alexandria, Virginia Phone: (703) Fax: (703) Dear Faithful of St. Lawrence Catholic Church, I wish to take a moment as your Pastor to formally address issues facing the Church and our clergy. Over the last several weeks, we have heard details of gravely serious sins in the hierarchy of the Church and about some priests in Pennsylvania. This sadness is, well, both depressing and very troubling. Of course, all priests, being human, fail in smaller ways and even in larger ways that are not uncommon to the human condition. Such failings disappoint all of us. I echo the words our Bishop in his letter concerning these terrible crimes that the recent revelations are miserable and repulsive failures of some of our clergy and those in the hierarchy of the Church. All of this has a terrible effect on the Church from new priestly vocations to the Church s credibility to preach and spread the Gospel message for the salvation of souls. But in the personal dimension, these sad revelations are horrible to the victims and are certainly terribly hard even devastating on you, the faithful of Holy Church. I say this because they are hard on me. We heard in last weekend s Gospel, I am the living bread that came down from heaven; whoever eats this bread will live forever; and the bread that I will give is My Flesh for the life of the world. Amen, amen, I say to you, unless you eat the Flesh of the Son of Man and drink His Blood, you do not have life within you. Whoever eats My Flesh and drinks My Blood has eternal life, and I will raise him on the last day. To receive the Holy Eucharist for the life of the world, we need good and faithful priests and bishops because the Flesh of the Son of Man and His Blood are essential to nourish our souls. Priests and bishops are the necessary instruments for these treasures of our salvation, but they, as individuals, are not the source for those graces. The source is Jesus Christ, the Word made flesh. The whole Church the laity, priests, and bishops is composed of sinners and saints, with the sinners, hopefully, fighting against temptations to become saints by the faithful and frequent reception of the Sacraments and defeating temptations. If your focus has been distracted as is understandable by the evil actions and immoral failings of some priests and bishops, your focus needs to return to this sole source of peace and healing. Of course, when a priest abuses a child, he must be dealt with swiftly and severely, and any bishop who covers that up should likewise receive significant punishment. Amid this recent struggle in Holy Church, we must keep our hearts, minds, and souls centered on our LORD Jesus and not allow the horrible revelations to shake our faith in Him since only in Him will our souls find peace. My dear faithful, all these scandals could lead you to distrust all priests and bishops. Please do not do that. Our LORD teaches us that we need Him in the Holy Eucharist and in the other Sacraments so please pray that everyone in the Church is faithful to our individual vocation with all our heart, mind, and soul firmly rooted in and fixed on Christ Jesus: Whoever eats My Flesh and drinks My Blood Pray the Holy Rosary
4 August 21, 2018 Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Our Holy Father, Pope Francis, recently reminded us of the words of the Apostle Paul: If one member suffers, all suffer together with it (1 Cor 12:26). With you, I share the suffering of victims of sexual abuse on the part of clergy, and the suffering of all who have lost trust and confidence in leaders of our Church. Upon hearing credible and substantiated allegations of sexual abuse on the part of Archbishop Theodore McCarrick and the horrific accounts of the Pennsylvania grand jury report, including the failure of Church leaders to protect children, teenagers and young adults from abuse, I, like you, felt tremendous anger and shame that such crimes occurred within our Church. I have had several opportunities to speak about these issues in recent days through statements, homilies, a letter to priests, and podcasts. (These are all available on the diocesan website.) In each instance, I knew full well that words cannot sufficiently express my regret for the sins of Church leaders and priests who betrayed Christ and his people. No matter how insufficient words may be, however, I again convey my sincere apologies to victims of abuse and reassure them, as well as the rest of the Catholic faithful in this Diocese, of my desire to support you in every way possible. Additionally, I assure you that no priest credibly accused of child sexual abuse is, or ever will be, in active ministry in this Diocese. I was ordained a bishop in 2002, the same year the Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People was enacted to establish standards for reporting and investigating accusations, as well as to help victims heal from the trauma they experienced. As such, I have always implemented these procedures throughout my ministry as a bishop. Once again, I wish to assure you that in our Diocese, immediately upon receiving an accusation of abuse, we report it to law enforcement. In addition, all evidence about each allegation is assessed by our diocesan review board, composed of a majority of lay men and women who have expertise in areas that will assist with the process. Policies are essential, and they must continue to be implemented and followed. This crisis, however, is not only about policies it is about evil, the moral failings of priests, and at times a lack of courage and integrity on the part of bishops and other Church leaders. Priests and bishops should not need policies to keep from committing immoral acts or to report heinous crimes to the authorities. We should need only a well-formed conscience, a commitment to Jesus Christ, and fidelity to the promises of our vocation. With the Lord s grace, we must strive to root out evil and work tirelessly to protect all young people as a matter of respect for their precious dignity as beloved children of God. When witnessing such failures, many will naturally question their confidence and trust in the Church. Please always remember that Christ is Head of the Church and that he never fails us. While the Lord in his divinity works through his bishops and priests, at times they in their humanity fail to protect the flock, even in the most disturbing ways. Please join me in praying for our priests, as in this troubling time they greatly appreciate the support you have shown. I pray that, together, we will renew our faith in Christ, who promises to be with us through periods of darkness and uncertainty. We call upon his Divine Mercy and saving help as we seek healing, purification and transformation. May Our Lord guide and protect his Church and his people, now and always. Sincerely in Christ, Most Reverend Michael F. Burbidge 0706 Bishop August of Arlington 26, 2018
