Bodette column: Join us for clergy abuse chat

MINNESOTA
St. Cloud Times

John Bodette

Good morning, St. Cloud area.

Mark your calendars for 1 p.m. Monday to view the Times Editorial Board’s discussion with St. Cloud Bishop Donald Kettler and St. John’s Abbot John Klassen about the clergy sex abuse scandal and how the Catholic Church can move forward.

Board members spent time Wednesday discussing possible questions to ask two of the leaders of the Catholic Church in Central Minnesota. There are plenty of things the board wants to understand about how the clergy abuse issue was handled and what steps are being taken to prevent future abuse.

You can watch the session live on www.sctimes.com. We also plan to provide a news report of highlights from the session.

Thanks to the readers who answered my suggestion in a previous column and sent along their questions for consideration.
