Thank you for sharing this. In Canada the mainstream news has been focusing on all of the negative about the visit, blaming the Catholic Church for the schools and reinforcing the false notion that the Pope has not already apologized for these grave sins years ago. It was nice to read this interview and read about the preparations from the people who are actually part of the visit. This priest sounds like he understands his role, the role of the church and the purpose of this visit very clearly. Gives me hope it will be fruitful.

I love the logistics article. very interesting.

I also like the quote that not everyone is ready to forgive/forget, but they have to start with what they have (though, to be fair, sounds like people have been trying to start process for years). May this visit help in the process for all those affected.
