Abstract

Victims of clergy sexual abuse experience shame which can be healed by love shared in the community of faith. Traditional Lutheran themes of baptism, confession/forgiveness, and communion are explored in this context. The experience of an 'aftercare' pastor in a congregation following pastoral sexual misconduct is reported through the use of journal excerpts and a case study. Interviews are part of the pastoral care model. The voices of victims are heard in seven interviews, direct source material for researchers. Clergy Sexual Misconduct: Issues and Implications, a document for discussion and education, is included in an appendix.
