The Most Rev. Frank Caggiano, together with a planning committee of Survivors of Sexual Abuse as Minors by Priests, will hold a very special Mass for anyone who has been sexually abused as a minor and for others who have been impacted. The Mass will be held on October 29, 2017 at 2:00 P.M. at St. Anthony of Padua Church located at 149 South Pine Creek Rd, Fairfield, CT. Light Refreshments will be served immediately following the Mass.

In addition, there are two upcoming gatherings at the Bridgeport Public Library at their North Branch located at 3455 Madison Ave, Bridgeport, CT. This is an opportunity to meet with fellow adult survivors of abuse as a minor together with the Diocesan Victim Assistance Coordinator. You are important to us and we want to know how we may assist you in your journey towards healing.
