Helena Bishop George Leo Thomas held prayer services in seven Montana
communities last year in the wake of a nearly $21 million settlement to
resolve claims by about 380 people who accused the Diocese of Helena of
sexual abuse.
Thomas spoke at churches in Helena, Bozeman, Butte, Cut Bank, Columbia Falls, St. Ignatius and Missoula, according to a list of the outreach efforts. The services held in these seven communities were part of numerous nonmonetary provisions in a Chapter 11 bankruptcy and reorganization plan for the diocese that was confirmed by the Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, bankruptcy court in March 2015.
