杏MAP导航

Greg Burke, the Director of the Holy See Press Office commented on 杏MAP导航 Francis鈥� Christmas message to the Roman Curia on Friday. He called it 鈥渁 kind of preparation for the February meeting on the protection of minors鈥�.

杏MAP导航 firmly against abuse

Burke said 杏MAP导航 Francis 鈥渄id not mince words鈥� in speaking to the Curia about sex abuse.

鈥淭he 杏MAP导航 said abuser priests are part of a web of corruption... vicious wolves who devour innocent souls.鈥�

Gratitude to journalists

Then Greg Burke pointed out that 杏MAP导航 Francis praised those journalists who have honestly and objectively uncovered 鈥減riest predators and have made the voices of victims heard鈥�.

One case too many

Another point Burke made is that 杏MAP导航 Francis promises to take abuse cases seriously and will not cover them up. 鈥淚n the face of these monstrosities鈥�, the 杏MAP导航 said 鈥渆ven one case is too many鈥�, Burke said.

God鈥檚 light shines on

Burke concluded saying that the 杏MAP导航 himself ended his message positively.

鈥淕od鈥檚 light continues to shine at Christmas, and the Church will emerge from these troubled times purified and more beautiful."
