I am involved with Journey to Bethany because I see it as an opportunity for our diocese to repair the harm that was done to so many children and families. My hope for Journey to Bethany is that it becomes a place where people come to heal.

The Catholic Church was instituted by God to assist His children in growing closer to Him. Unfortunately, clergy sexual abuse has driven many people away from God.
I hope that Journey to Bethany will enable victims (and others) in their journeys of healing and growing closer to God.

CARNIE NULTON, Journey to Bethany Committee Member

Clergy sexual abuse really affects the whole Catholic community. So this is a community effort, in coming together as a community to show love, show care, to help to show people that we all care about this issue and we care about you.

Coming together with people who have suffered the same type of trauma has offered me a peace I had not yet experienced. We shared the burden with each other and somehow the burden became lighter.
