Mission & Justice

Victor Simpson, Belinda Cranston & Rachel Browne; 13/7/08

Pope Benedict said yesterday he wants to apologise to victims of sexual abuse by Catholic priests and wake up consciences on climate change during his pilgrimage in Australia. The Pope said while flying to Sydney to begin a 10-day visit for World Youth Day that he would apologise to victims of sexual abuse by Catholic clergy in Australia “just as I did in the United States” this year.
