Vatican summit likely to push speedy removal of priests
The extraordinary U S cardinals and Vatican officials meeting in Rome next week are expected to emphasize faster removal of errant priests and consider a binding national policy to standardize how U S bishops handle clergy abuse charges. Bishop Joseph Galante says the pledge to protect children remains strong while observers urge tempered expectations amid a church trying to rebuild trust. Cardinal Bernard Law of Boston and Pope Francis are cited as showing solidarity with the U S church amid the ongoing scandal. Law acknowledged in January his failure to remove a priest accused of molesting over 130 people.
