Letter from Bishop Frank J. Dewane

Diocese of Venice in Florida Statement Regarding
OFFICE OF STATEWIDE PROSECUTION'S REPORT ON SEXUAL ABUSE IN THE CATHOLIC CHURCH IN FLORIDA

The State Report is a reminder of the grave harm done in the past to minors by some who were ordained to provide pastoral care to the Faithful. Regrettably, the Priests who have offended can obscure the truth that most Catholic priests serve with fidelity, generosity, compassion, and care.

The investigation recognized the Diocese has followed its policies and provided, once again, the opportunity for the Diocese of Venice to reiterate its commitment to stand firm in implementing the USCCB Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People. The Diocese will continue to do all that is within its power to remain faithful to the long-established policies for protecting children and promoting moral integrity of those who serve in the Church.

Holy Hour at OLQH Church

The Gospel writer Mark records the occasion when those disciples slept while he prayed in the Garden prior to his trial and eventual crucifixion, “Could you not watch one hour with Me?” (Mk 14:34) We are encouraged to do likewise and spend an hour in thanksgiving. Every Friday and Thursday a Holy Hour is offered from 7pm until 8pm at Our Lady Queen of Heaven. This is an opportunity to visit the Blessed Sacrament exposed and to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation. For more info see here.
