Letters to a Broken Church (The CofE Abuse Crisis)

We should send a copy to every safeguarding officer in the CofE

Thank you for your work. Ian & Ruth Tattum

This really important issue needs to be discussed and the church needs to change for all our sakes

Hooray for your courage and creativity! .....and for a new chapter of openness and honesty and love.

Only the Truth will set us free.

Time for the church to change.

Love to you and for what you're doing, Gilo xxx

Too important for the CofE not to support this. God go with you all.

Sometimes we have to challenge where there is complacency and a loss of direction. I stand right with you and feel proud to do so.

To show my support for the victims and expose the cover up.

The light has come into the world, and people who do evil things are judged guilty because they love the dark more than the light John 3v19

Thank you for your courage in bringing the shameful history of abuse into the Light of Christ. May the reception of these letters bring justice and healing to all concerned.

A small gift of support and solidarity

Inspired by survivors and angered by much that iicsa is exposing

Christ be with me, Christ within me, Christ behind me, Christ before me, Christ beside me, Christ to win me, Christ to comfort and restore me. Christ beneath me, Christ above me, Christ in quiet, Christ in danger, Christ in hearts of all that love me, Christ in mouth of friend and stranger.

Well done everyone, I look forward to reading this.

Because these letters need to be read by as many people as possible. Those who care, those who don't (at the moment).

I want to hear your voice!

This is a really important project and glad to add my support to your work. We need to hear this

For too long the Church of England has been allowed to regulate and police itself. This must stop. It must be accountable outside itself. Evidence, survivors of abuse and history has shown it cannot be trusted to mark its own homework. It must make amends. Whether forced upon it or voluntarily, Church of England Child Safeguarding must be reformed. I hope with all my heart this book is the catalyst for those amends and that reform. Adam - @Knuffsed

Best of luck with an important piece of work.

This is brilliant follow-up to what was a positive start at General Synod in York this month to the Church beginning to listen to the voices of the survivors. I hope many other Synod members will give it their support.

Pleased to help support this important and timely project. Thanks to all who are making this possible, and for the contributors too...

It is essential that responsibility be taken for past and present abuses, that Canterbury, unlike Rome, not only repents but acknowledges its failings in protecting the bureaucracy instead of promoting the mission, of God's church

The moral bankruptcy of the established Church leaders, and the complicity of the rest of the Establishment in the cover-up of child sex abuse by Anglican clergy needs to be exposed in as many ways as possible and as often as possible.
