Archdiocese of New York:

Dear Member of the Family of the Archdiocese of New York:

I regret once again having to be the bearer of bad news, but I write to inform you that the archdiocese has received an allegation of sexual abuse of a minor brought against Bishop John Jenik, an auxiliary bishop of the archdiocese.

The Lay Review Board has carefully examined the allegation, which concerns incidents from decades ago, and concluded that the evidence is sufficient to find the allegation credible and substantiated. Although Bishop Jenik continues to deny the allegation, he has stepped aside from public ministry and has moved out of his parish.

For additional information, please see my letter to Bishop Jenik’s parishioners, along with a letter from Bishop Jenik, on the archdiocesan website at https://archny.org/news/bishop-jenik.

Please keep all those whose lives have been touched by the crime and sin of sexual abuse in your prayers.

Faithfully in Christ,

Timothy Michael Cardinal Dolan
Archbishop of New York

A chairde
 
As reflected in the attached release we are expanding Carmel Quinn’s Ballymurphy tour to include Cleveland, Philadelphia, New Jersey, Washington DC and New York.
The upcoming Ballymurphy Inquest is a crucial test of British legacy justice.
Hear Carmel Quinn talk about the Massacre of her brother John Laverty,Fr. Hugh Mullan,grandmother Joan Connolly and 8 others.
Hear why these families count on America and the AOH!
 
We are bringing her to Washington DC on November 14-15 but we are counting on members to ask your Senator and Congressman to meet her.
 
We are preparing a briefing materials and booking a schedule but it all starts with Congressmen and Senators hearing from YOU their constituents that people who vote for them care enough to make call and ask them to set up an appointment.
 
Slan,
 
MARTIN GALVIN
