Parishioners 'shocked' at possible bankruptcy for Diocese of San Diego (KGTV)

“We may be facing a moment where the Diocese enters into bankruptcy in the coming months,” Cardinal Robert McElroy of San Diego wrote in a letter to parishioners.

“Bankruptcy would provide a pathway for ensuring that the assets of the diocese will be used equitably to compensate all victims of sexual abuse, while continuing the ministries of the Church for faith formation, pastoral life and outreach to the poor and the marginalized,” he added.
