We entrust all who have suffered to the healing love of God and will continue to hold them and L'Arche International in our prayers.
The full announcement, ‘L’Arche International inquiry into historic sexual abuse by Jean Vanier’, may be read here: https://www.larche.org.uk/inquiry-statement
Given the nature of the inquiry's findings, we have decided to withdraw Jean Vanier's books from sale. We will continue to follow the situation and respond as needed to any other further developments. Our thoughts and prayers are with all those who are distressed by these revelations, and we pray that they and all those who have suffered sexual and spiritual abuse find healing and comfort.
Sam Richardson, CEO, on behalf of the SPCK Team
For those wishing to discuss concerns, we would like to signpost you to thirtyone:eight, NAPAC (relating to childhood abuse), MACSAS (for victims of Clergy Sexual Abuse) and The Survivor's Trust.
