Before a packed St. Bernadette Catholic Church in Evergreen Park on Sunday, Cardinal Francis George celebrated mass — and a new beginning for the parish.
The cardinal was there to announce the church’s new pastor, who will take over for the former pastor, the Rev. Gary Miller. Miller resigned in June amid allegations of sexual abuse about 30 years ago, according to the Archdiocese of Chicago.
Cardinal George stressed to the estimated 500 people in attendance that the diocese does not take the allegations lightly.
