Last February, I attended a healing circle, sponsored by Voice of the Faithful at a house in the Germantown section of Philadelphia. I currently live in Bucks county in suburban Philadelphia. I was born and lived my first few years in Germantown. This ,for me was a homecoming of sorts. As a sixty seven year old survivor of clergy sexual abuse, I found the dozen or so lay people who attended the circle to be extremely warm, compassionate people who opened their hearts and arms to someone who was hurting. I found out that most of these people were members at St. Vincents' . I will always admire their living the teachings of Christ.
