Haiti-Pedophil : Rev. John Unni and Kay O'Halloran of Boston guarantee safety of children in Haiti.

March 1, 2011 Rev. John Unni Pastor St. Cecilia's Church Boston, MA Dear John,  According to the letter I received from Rob Patterson, vice-chairman of "Hearts with Haiti," you and fellow board member, Kay O'Halloran (St. Cecilia's), agree with Patterson's statement (see below). In other words, you, Rev. John Unni, and Ms. Kay O'Halloran (of your parish), know for sure that Michael Geilenfeld has never, ever sexually abused a child and that the children presently in his care are safe and protected. Would you and Ms. O'Halloran kindly respond?

The children in the St. Joseph Family are our primary concern, and we are dedicated to ensuring their safety and welfare. If we had any reason to believe that the young people in Michael Geilenfeld's care had been abused or were at risk of being abused, we would immediately take steps to provide for their safety. Please understand that the Hearts with Haiti Board of Directors is not the governing body of the St. Joseph Family.  We are a 501c3 whose primary mission is to support the vision and ministry of the St. Joseph Family. Our role is fund raising and support, not administration. Sincerely, Rob Patterson Vice Chairman Hearts with Haiti ____________________ "La vraie reconstruction d'Haïti passe par des réformes en profondeur des structures de l'État pour restaurer la confiance, encourager les investisseurs et mettre le peuple au travail. Il faut finir avec cette approche d'un État paternaliste qui tout en refusant de créer le cadre approprié pour le développement des entreprises mendie des millions sur la scène internationale en exhibant la misère du peuple."
