This is a really hard one for me to hear about. I was a seminarian at Mundelein from 2013-2019 and I really enjoyed all of Dr. McNamara's presentations on Church architecture. He also was from Long Island, NY, which is where I also grew up. I didn't share any personal conversations aside from at the seminary lunch tables, but he always was kind and thoughtful. Let us pray for all involved in this both those who were sinned against and the one who committed the offenses.

A sad reminder of how adults may be sexually abused by Church officials in positions of power. Praying for all abused and abusers. I recommend SNAP (Survivors Network of those abused by Priests) for resources.
