Описание книги

Turning to the Catholic Church as a means of healing from childhood abuse, Hank Estrada looked for consolation and comfort but instead found cruel deception and ultimate religious betrayal at the hands of a very powerful religious machine, and in particular one manipulative, deviant priest.<br> <br>UnHoly Communion is a shocking and candid account of one man&#39;s personal battle with the darker side of the Catholic Church. Read the author&#39;s first hand accounts of how the Catholic Church continued to shamefully protect one of its sexual predators while he moved on from one victim to another.<br> <br>In this heart wrenching memoir, Estrada describes his road to hell and back as he lived through devastating sexual scandals and found the courage to persevere. This inspiring story of determination and resilience is for anyone who has struggled with any type of childhood abuse, adult exploitation, or the unspeakable sex crimes from once trusted clergy. Estrada connects with the reader and shows us how hope, peace and love can be found if you don&#39;t give up.

Отрывок из книги

I wish to especially thank the following individuals for their support and assistance.

Richard Sipe

.....

I think of how many times I’ve wanted to say to you “I love you” but could only feel it and not say it. I want to tell you now that I truly love you, I always have and always will. I will love you no matter where I am, how far go or in whatever I do—“I love you and I need you.” I realize this may seem strange for me to write and say but I say it because I see others who have waited too long to express this and lost the opportunity forever. I don’t want to feel sorry for something I never said, like I love you, but always wanted to.

We are growing older and each one of us will choose his or her own way of living their dreams. I pray always for all of you, that we may each come to know what our purpose in this life is, and how we can better support and love each other.
