For decades, despicable and evil acts of sexual abuse committed by clergy and vowed religious of the Catholic Church dwelled in the shadows. The Marianist Province of the United States is ashamed and deeply regretful that some among its members have been guilty of these sins. Abusive behavior is a betrayal of our religious vocation and has no place in our ministries. All entrusted to our care should be safe.
And so, in a spirit of sorrow and accountability, and with a sincere desire for reconciliation and healing, the Province has decided to publish names of those Marianist priests and brothers, living and deceased, found to have sexually abused a minor.
The list and additional information can be found at
marianist.com/healing.
In publishing this list, we hope and pray that survivors will be validated in their experiences, and that our commitment to transparency will help rebuild trust.
We encourage any survivors of sexual abuse by a Marianist to report it to civil
authorities and/or our Pastoral Assistance Coordinator at:
