Keep the Faith, Archbishop Urges The Press Association December 6, 2009 http://www.google.com/hostednews/ukpress/article/ALeqM5hxYodGzdLAac_mgTw1UHcbD9MR-Q The head of the Catholic Church in Dublin has urged young people not to abandon their faith in the wake of a damning investigation into clerical child sex abuse. As speculation grew that a senior clergyman criticised in the Murphy report may stand down, Archbishop Diarmuid Martin said the time had come for reform and accountability. "The Church needs to step out of so much of what appeared to be positive but was truly damaging," he told Mass-goers at St Andrew's church in Dublin. "The Church must learn how to return to its fundamental mission." |
