Pope Leo tells of being attacked while visiting Dublin

In 2019 Pope Leo, then Bishop Robert Prevost recounted an incident, which happened him on a Dublin street before 2005. He spoke of the attack during a discussion in Peru about child sexual abuse in the Catholic Church.

It’s an upsetting story but the bishop tells it with a gracious sense of charity and indeed, understanding.

This man is a wise and kind man, clever too.
