	Atonement Services Start This Week By Thomas Geyer Quad-City Times August 27, 2008 http://www.qctimes.com/articles/2008/08/26/news/local/doc48b4cd7b117bb180293961.txt Diocese of Davenport Bishop Martin Amos has scheduled a series of atonement services that will be held at parishes where sexual abuse by a priest occurred. The first service is 6:30 p.m. Thursday at Our Lady of Victory, 1627 W. 42nd St., Davenport. The visits are a non-monetary requirement of the diocese’s $37 million bankruptcy settlement. The diocese filed for bankruptcy in 2006 after it lost its first civil sex abuse trial. The diocese, its insurance company and the creditors committee agreed to a $37 million settlement. The settlement included a list of 18 non-monetary agreements.
