While Pope Francis leads a liturgy for priests, religious, consecrated and seminarians in the Metropolitan Cathedral , some peaceful demonstrations are recorded in its vicinity.
On Calle Compañía, a group of lay people from Osorno protest peacefully shouting slogans against the city’s bishop, Juan Barros , accused of covering up abuses committed by priest Fernando Karadima .
While some of the victims of former pastor also were present in the vicinity of the capital temple demonstrating with black balloons, also rejecting the presence of Barros in papal activities.
One of Karadima’s victims, journalist Juan Carlos Cruz , said he expects nothing from Pope Francisco.
“One always expects a greater gesture, but Pope Francis does not wait a long time because it is pure and nothing concrete, the time to ask for forgiveness and to talk about abuses and everything has happened a long time ago, now it is about taking concrete actions” he added.]
