Congregants say final goodbye at funeral for church

In a poignant ceremony, Anglican Bishop Keith Joseph bid farewell to churches in his diocese, which is closing its doors to settle financial obligations linked to child abuse cases. This move reflects a broader trend in the church's efforts to address historical grievances and rebuild trust with the community. The closure of these churches underscores the significant financial and moral responsibilities faced by religious institutions in the wake of abuse scandals, signaling a painful but necessary step towards accountability and healing.
