“Vos Estis” Five Years Later: Part 2
The second part of our May Courageous Conversation will take place on Zoom and be focused on building connections and community while diving deeper into the questions raised by the conversation the previous week.
We will utilize Zoom breakout rooms for facilitated small group discussion and sharing, encouraging all participants to bring their own perspectives and experiences to the conversation. (This event will not be recorded--you'll need to attend live to hear these insights!)

“Vos Estis” Five Years Later: JD Flynn and Anne Barrett Doyle in Conversation
In our May Courageous Conversation, journalist and co-founder of The Pillar, JD Flynn, and co-director of BishopAccountability.org, Anne Barrett Doyle will be in conversation on the impact of Vos Estis Lux Mundi in the five years since its promulgation. Vos Estis created new church law mandating the report and investigation of sexual abuse of children and adults by either clergy or men and women in religious orders. It also sought to establish structures of accountability for bishops who mishandle reports of abuse.
