Carl A. Anderson, Supreme Knight of theKnights of Columbus, has called for the organization to participate in the “repentance, reform and rebuilding of the Church.”

His call came in an August 21, 2018, letter to all member of the Knights in which he said: “Many feel deeply betrayed by those whom they long held in high regard.”

He cited the problem of clericalism and called for a full investigation and accounting of the failures of Church leaders, which he said is a global problem.
