A handful of protestors showed up Thursday at the Basilica of Our Lady of San Juan Del Valle Shrine the shrine, saying their angry that the Brownsville Diocese continues to withhold vital information when it comes to sexual abuse cases within the church.
The four protestors were members of the Call To Action group.
They said that they were there as a sign of protest for the way the Diocese and Bishop Raymundo Pena handle sexual abuse cases involving its priests.
"Our goal is to once again request from our Bishop to come forward and make public the names of those priests that have had allegations of abuse against them," said David Saavedra, co-chairman of the Call To Action chapter in McAllen.
