Those who have been affected by sexual or other abuse, in all its manifestations, within the family, in institutions, in the church or in any other setting as well as their families, their carers and supporters are welcome to attend.

        The evening is carefully designed and focused so as to respond to the need for healing and renewal.  

        It includes appropriate chant, singing, music, dance, readings, ceremonial and symbolism. 

        It is structured so that those who participate will leave with a sense of hope in their own worth as individuals and as valued members of the community.
