COMMENTARY: When the Boston cardinal speaks on the subject of sexual abuse in the Church, everyone should listen.
EDITORIAL: The Dicastery for Communication’s conspicuous use of the priest’s art, and its recent defense by the dicastery’s prefect, appears as shockingly tone-deaf.
The information appears on page 1346 of the yearbook, with the list of consultants of the Dicastery for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments.

COMMENTARY: The whole stomach-churning affair has constituted another major stain on Pope Francis’ record on sex abuse cases.
CNA looked into the claims.
Sister Ivanka Hosta was quietly removed in June from the governance of the community, banned from contacting current or former sisters for three years, and ordered to make monthly pilgrimages to pray for Father Rupnik’s victims.
Jesuit priest and artist Father Marko Rupnik, accused of having physically and psychologically abused numerous nuns, continues to travel and carry out art projects, despite restrictions imposed by the Society of Jesus.
