For the 14th week in a row, advocates for victims of clergy abuse gathered in front of the Holy Cross Roman Catholic Church in Albany.

Members of the group SNAP -- Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests -- are calling for the removal of Father Daniel Maher. Father Maher has been accused of sexually abusing two church members.

Bishop Howard Hubbard has refused to remove Father Maher as pastor. SNAP said that because of the bishop's decision, children in the parish are now in danger.
