In his homily on Good Friday at the Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul, Cardinal Bevilacqua echoed the sentiments of the Holy Father, asking God to forgive all the Catholic faithful of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia who may have expressed in any way prejudice and hatred against God's chosen people, His Jewish sons and daughters. The Cardinal's address is open to the public. Congregation Adath Jeshurun has invited both the Jewish and non-Jewish community, including rabbis in local congregations, as well as pastors of neighboring Catholic parishes. Cardinal Bevilacqua will answer questions from the congregation after his address and then greet members of the congregation. After the reception line, the Cardinal will be available for media interviews.
