Priests, bishops, and other leaders to whom we entrusted our souls and the lives of our children have failed us in their most essential duties. We are beyond hurt; we are devastated; we are heartbroken; we are angry. We know that every corner of our church has somehow been stained by these sins. Hear our anguished cries today, O Lord, as we weep for our church. We need you now more than ever. Help us feel your presence in these difficult days. Make your justice known among us, that these grievous wrongs may be addressed. Help us to have hope in your steadfast love, and lead us one day to the healing that we so desperately crave. We ask this in the name of the One who suffered on the cross for the sins of all, your Son, Jesus Christ, who is Lord for ever and ever. Amen. (c) J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.
