Listening Session on November 16 at 7pm

Listening Session on November 16 at 7pm

Dear Folks,

I would like to invite you to a ‘Listening Session’ about the abuse crisis which has engulfed our Catholic Church and is very much present on your minds and hearts. All of your parish priests have cleared our calendars for Friday November 16th at 7:00 pm, where we will gather in the church to welcome you and give you an opportunity to speak and ask questions that are weighing on your mind.
This will be an opportunity for honest conversation and listening to your concerns.  Due to the nature of the topic, this even will not be suitable for children.  If you would like to submit a prepared question, you may email me (frmosimann@stmaryfred.org).  However, no RSVP is required.
In addressing many of the frequently asked questions, the Arlington Diocese has a great resource that can be found at
Be assured of my prayers for you always.
pax,
fr mosimann
