EL PASO, Texas – Saint Patrick’s Cathedral opened up its doors to residents who are dealing with abuse.

Today the cathedral hosted its very first Mass of Atonement and Hope.

They invited survivors of physical, emotional and sexual abuse, as well as their families.

Bishop Mark Seitz and parishioners prayed for victims of abuse whether it happened within the Church, in the family or society.

The church says people who have been hurt by abuse aren’t recognized enough and this is the first step to raise more awareness.
