The event is expected to draw supporters from across the United States and Europe, according to a news release from the organization.

“At the close of our first decade, we’re assessing where we’ve been and considering what we have left to do to bring healing and renewal to clergy abuse survivors, to conscientious priests trapped in such turmoil for so long a time and to our whole Church.

“VOTF is bringing together speakers whose work has given them in-depth knowledge and awareness not only of the Church’s clergy sexual abuse scandal and the devastation wreaked upon victims and their families, but also of the clericalism in the Church’s hierarchy, theological and doctrinal underpinnings of Church teaching and the effects the reform movement has had on Catholics and the Church,” the release states.

The Voice of the Faithful 10th Year Conference will be Sept. 14 and Sept.15, at the Marriott Copley Place Hotel, Boston. Conference information is available at www.votf.org.
