'Walk of atonement' priest to arrive in Dublin today
Tuesday, 6 January 2009
A catholic priest engaging in a "walk of atonement" for the victims of clerical child sex abuse is expected to arrive at his destination in Dublin today.
Fr Michael Mernagh set out from St Coleman's Cathedral in Cobh 10 days ago as part of his initiative to show solidarity with abuse victims.
He began the walk following the publication of a highly critical report into the mishandling of abuse allegations in the diocese of Cloyne.
The Bishop of Cloyne, John Magee, has resisted numerous calls for him to resign on foot of the report.
Fr Mernagh is expected to conclude his walk at the Pro Cathedral in Dublin today.
