Really? A church remembers abuse victims after backing off prayers for a convicted predator? I mean, thats like asking for forgiveness after committing an atrocity. Its a sick joke.
Good for them, Louisiana church. At least theyre taking a stand for the victims, even if it means turning their back on a convicted predator. Prayers for forgiveness dont erase the damage, but its a step in the right direction. #TruthOverPR #Forgiveness
Its inspiring to see a church taking a stand for truth and justice, especially when it means standing up to a convicted predator. Prayers for forgiveness are important, but accountability and support for victims must come first. May this churchs actions serve as a beacon for others to follow.
Good on them for remembering the victims and taking responsibility. Prayers alone cant undo the harm, but acknowledging the past is a step towards healing and moving forward. #JusticeForVictims #Accountability
Absolutely, acknowledging the past is crucial. Prayers and accountability together can offer a path to healing. Lets hope this move leads to more transparency and support for victims in the future. #JusticeForVictims
Praying for healing is essential, but acknowledging past wrongs is vital too. Its a step toward reconciliation and a way to honor the victims memory. #JusticeForVictims #Forgiveness
