Cupich to Meet in Mundelein With Chicago-Area Priests

The priest sex abuse crisis will be front and center Wednesday night as Chicago clergy are invited to meet with Cardinal Blase Cupich.

As NBC 5 first revealed, the closed door session will take place at the seminary in Mundelein.

A new statement from Washington, D.C. Cardinal Donald Wuerl, now clarifies that he will soon meet with Pope Francis to request he accept his resignation, not to discuss it.

Also, Pope Francis has called for a worldwide summit on child protection in February in Rome, it’s the first time the church has called for bishops from every nation to gather on the topic.
