Archbishop Christopher Prowse will visit Goulburn on Tuesday to hear community concerns about institutional abuse within the catholic archdiocese.

His ‘listening tour’ follows evidence given by all of Australia’s archbishops at the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Sexual Abuse.

“In a sincere gesture of pastoral care on this fragile matter, I intend to visit the Archdiocese in the final weeks of Lent, and listen carefully to those who wish to gather with me,” Archbishop Prowse stated in a circular.

He will be at Mary Queen of Apostles Parish meeting room, Verner Street, Goulburn from 7pm Tuesday, March 28.
