BISHOP PATRICK APOLOGISES TO BUXTON VICTIMS AND SURVIVORS, AND SAINT ANNE'S PARISHIONERS.
“This evening my prayers and thoughts are with all the victims of the horrific crimes of Fr. Paul Cullen, but particularly the survivors of this parish of Saint Anne’s, here in Buxton. As the current Bishop of this Diocese of Nottingham, within which Fr. Cullen ministered, I wish to try and apologise to you for his actions, for the way the diocese responded to them and, most importantly, for the abuse and hurt each of his victims and their families have continued to experience… I also want to apologise, as Bishop of Nottingham, and on behalf of the Diocese, for the hurt Fr. Cullen has caused each of you, the people of this parish. I can well understand your very real feeling, as his parishioners, of having been betrayed by him as your parish priest. I can also understand your righteous anger and your sorrow at the way he despicably abused and damaged the young lives of some parishioners here… I am sensitive to the reality that this sense of violation, woundedness and shame is still very alive here in this parish community…
My desire is to learn from the past and to actively do all I can as Bishop to ensure that everyone in our diocese is safe, that we all work together in our parishes and chaplaincies to ensure that everyone is safe, especially the most vulnerable. My door and the door of our Diocesan Safeguarding Team is always open to anyone affected by abuse. I thank you all for inviting me tonight; this is a most important initiative and I hope it helps to bring some healing to you all.”
Bishop Patrick's apology is on our parish Facebook page, as part of the livestream of Tuesday’s service.
You can find it at 58mins, 38 secs. We shall publish it in full on our website next week. A big thank you to all parishioners who attended during the day of prayer and to all who helped prepare the day.
Next Sunday, 5th May is SAFEGUARDING SUNDAY, an opportunity to reflect on our ongoing journey to build a safer environment for every person. Our Parish Safeguarding Reps are Sue Thornhill in Chapel-en-le-Frith and Margaret Swift in Buxton. They support us in making our churches safe places to be. Building a safe culture is the responsibility of all of us, so please support and join with them in fostering a more evident culture of safeguarding, care and protection for everyone in our parish.
