CHICAGO - Cardinal Francis George has been under serious attack in the media including calls for his resignation. These attacks have come from many who identify themselves as Catholic. A rally is planned for 3:00 p.m. on Sunday, February 12, at Holy Name Cathedral in Chicago to show the support of the Catholic people in the Archdiocese for the Cardinal.
The recent case of charges of sexual abuse by a priest of the diocese has occasioned these serious attacks. We commend Cardinal George for publicly meeting with the media and the Catholic people to apologize for the mishandling of the charges, to explain how the process in place had failed and to immediately take steps to correct the procedure so such a thing will not happen again.
