On May 9, Pope Francis issued a new juridical instrument titled “Vox estis lux mundi” (” You are the light of the world“). The document includes new norms governing reporting and accountability in connection with sexual abuse cases. A number of these norms have long been in place in the Diocese of Trenton, but the Diocese continues to review the Holy Father’s document.
