Pope highlights plight of vulnerable adults in abuse and meets with top Opus Dei critic

Pope Leo XIV has indicated growing concern with the next frontier in combatting abuses in the Catholic Church. He is highlighting the plight of “vulnerable” adults and met with an investigative journalist who uncovered alleged abuses in the powerful Opus Dei movement. Gareth Gore is author of the book “Opus: The Cult of Dark Money, Human Trafficking and Right-Wing Conspiracy Inside the Catholic Church.” The American pope clearly wanted the Gore audience publicized. It was listed on his formal agenda and the Vatican released photos of the encounter.
