Every one knew what was happening to us children... boys and girls in the catholic orphanages... raped by the workers.. nuns and priest... you all knew and did not help us... I have lived a life of shame... pain and torment... but the worst thing was... you took from us children what we loved the most... our faith... when ever we talk about our lost of faith... the church turns her back on us... we were Jesus little Soldiers... we lost it all... because of what the servants of god did to our bodies... minds... and Souls...
They want us to forgive them... for taking us babies away from our mothers arms... selling us babies to the highest bidders... adopting us out... then when they got sick of us... they took us back to be adopted out again and again... 5 times... you took ever thing from us babies... the catholic church stole us babies from our mother's arms... 2 and a half months old I was... and my mother suffered the rest of her life... she lost her baby... and I lost my mother... I still grieve for her... Ann

The Bishop of Dunedin has apologised to the city and asked for forgiveness, after admitting the Catholic Church failed to protect children from paedophiles disguised as men of the cloth.
And, as more victims continue to come forward, he has also added his voice to growing calls for churches to be included in the Government's upcoming Royal Commission into historic abuse.https://www.odt.co.nz/news/dunedin/bishop-apologises-dunedin-its-indefensible
