PPrayer for Inner Quiet

Lord, I want to be quiet inside and hear your words for me. I know that your voice can give true peace to my heart. Give me the strength to quiet myself each day that your voice may

truly be the guide in my life. Fill me with the courage to trust and obey the messages you give to me. Let me feel through your words your deep love for me, that I may know the real peace

you have promised. Thank you, Lord, for continually speaking words of love to me, even when I block them out with my noise. Be patient with me as I slowly create quiet spaces in my life

for you. You are indeed good to me, and I love you. Amen.

The Archdiocesan Response to the Two Recent Grand Jury Actions In a letter to the priests of the Archdiocese, Archbishop Chaput has asked for this information to be shared with the parish.

Recent Legislative Outcomes in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania A number of recommendations were part of the state grand jury report released in August. Among them were reforms to criminal statutes and civil statutes in our state law aimed at punishing abusers and supporting abuse victims. Those matters have gained broad attention in the press over the past several weeks. It's important to note, that the Archdiocese of Philadelphia continues to support reforms that will punish perpetrators and aid survivors by eliminating the criminal statute of limitations and lengthening the civil statute of limitations to allow individuals to file civil suits up until the age of 50—an action that would add 20 years to the current statute. We also support the proposal to strengthen mandatory reporter requirements. These reforms, recommended by the recent Pennsylvania grand jury, have garnered broad consensus and agreement. They are concrete steps that will protect children and hold perpetrators accountable. The state legislature worked assiduously to tackle issues related to child protection and abuse survivor assistance while in session during the week of October 15th. Unfortunately, earnest efforts to find common ground and a path forward to support all those who have suffered were met with resistance. Despite the outcome of the recent debate, we remain steadfast in fulfilling our responsibility to individuals who have been harmed—no matter when that harm occurred. The Archdiocese continues to recognize its responsibility to provide an opportunity for sexual abuse survivors whose cases are time-barred from pursuing civil claims to share their experiences, identify their abusers, and receive compensation to assist their healing and recovery. Archbishop Chaput recently voiced his intention to create or participate in an independent, voluntary program that will include a panel of qualified experts to review individual cases and determine financial assistance for those who have been abused. To that end, we will honor our commitment to victims and we intend to play an active, positive role in efforts aimed at providing true healing and hope through programs already in place as well as new programs that will be administered independently of the Church.

Subpoena Issued by Federal Grand Jury Beginning on Thursday, October 18th, news outlets reported that a federal grand jury had issued subpoenas to Catholic dioceses throughout the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The media has also broadly reported that this investigative process will look at matters relative to sexual abuse of minors. As communicated to the media through an official statement on October 18th, the Archdiocese of Philadelphia did receive a federally issued subpoena, which requires the production of certain documents and it will cooperate with the United States Department of Justice in this matter. As this is an active federal in-vestigation, we are not able to comment further at this time. This most recent development is disconcerting after all that we have witnessed over a period of many years. However, it is important to remember that over the past 15 years, the Archdiocese has put into practice a wide range of reforms to protect young people and provide assistance to survivors of abuse. For further information regarding those comprehensive efforts, please visit www.AOPPledgetoProtect.com.
