The Mass of Atonement and Hope took place on Oct. 4 at Holy Family Church, 1080 West Roosevelt Road in Chicago. The Mass was to pray for the ongoing healing required for child and youth sexual abuse survivors, their families, the Church, society and for continued vigilance toward the protection of children and youth.
