Lest We Forget
 Recently in Iowa, a monument you was dedicated to
the lives of the victims of clergy sexual abuse. As
reported in the Quad-City
Times, “The monument unveiled outside SS Philip & James
Catholic Church on Sunday afternoon symbolizes many
things to survivors of sexual abuse, but most of all
it’s a reminder for everyone not to forget what
happened.” See the full
story.
The monument reads, “Dedicated to our children
who were abused by those we trusted.” Additional
Associated Press coverage on the TheNewsTribune.com site.
The Biblical inscription on the monument, from Luke
12:2-3: “There is nothing concealed that will
not be disclosed and nothing hidden that will not be
made known. What you have said in the dark will be
heard in the daylight and what you have whispered in
the ear in the inner rooms will be proclaimed from
the roofs.”
