  There are many beautiful parishioners here. The sacraments are made available. It is clear the parish invests a lot of money into its facilities and campus.
  
  There is one major problem with the church. Pastor, Mr. Bilot, has a serious darkside. The guy committed battery against me, grabbing my face and yelling, "Shut up," after repeated diminution of my Christ-given dignity.
  
  The battery transpired in the chapel before the Eucharist. Mr. Bilot would terminate employment of any DC teacher who did this to a student, or expel any high-schooler who did it to a peer. If you or I did this at work, we'd be escorted to the exit. If Bilot would do it to me, he might do it to your precious child whom you wish to go on to be a whole, wise person with a professional life after an education at Divine Child.
  
  Yet, Bilot will go on and become a monsignor, because actual merit or misconduct do not matter. The title "priest" guarantees blind support and good ol' boy privileges. He will have the routine ascent through the ranks. He committed a crime. Does it matter? No, he is the unassailable, never-wrong "priest."
  
  To any who've been subject of clergical abuse, it is a deep wound, compounded by incredulity and resentment of those to whom you mention the violence or embarrassment. You will be hated for telling truth, maybe, asked not to come around. It is wrong. Know, you who tell the truth are the holy and strong.
  
  God values truth before protectionism of priests. There was a rapist priest at my boyhood church. I knew the man was evil. The church merely sent him to Alaska instead of prosecuting him for multiple rapes of boys. There is no excuse for clerical abuse.
  
  End the immunity.

  Good people, caring priests that are faithful to the Church's teaching. Adoration chapel is a peaceful place for prayer and meditation.

  I've been through a lot of parishes in my life and none can compare to Divine Child, due largely in part to the outstanding pastoral and temporal leadership of our pastor, Father Jim Bilot. He is a Christ-like example and a compassionate spiritual father who lives out his sacred vocation with the utmost grace, passion in boldy and insightfully preaching the Gospel, and love for the flock which has been entrusted to his care. He has personally helped me grow in my relationship with Christ more than I know how to describe and has guided me through the process of becoming a more faithful, charitable, and all around better human being and Christian. He is an honorable man and a faithful servant of our Lord. Countless people look up to him and are inspired by his witness, myself first and foremost.
  
  Despite having over 2,000 families at our parish, it still feels as close knit as can be. There is a beautiful sense of community. Liturgy is carried out meticulously, with reverence and orthodoxy. I thank God that I found Church of the Divine Child. Father Jim's guidance, along with the uplifting example and support of my brothers and sisters in Christ here at Divine Child have helped me find the renewal of faith I so desperately needed.

  I used to adore this church. My brother's funeral was here; my parents' wedding was here; I was baptized here; I prayed for Mary's intercession here in second grade growing to know her here. Literally, my mother dedicated my life to Christ while I was in her womb here. This church is in my dna.
  
  Nevertheless, Jim Bilot has remorselessly disrespected me more than once here. I mentioned "Satan;" Bilot told me not to mention him again and put his hands on me. Bilot asked me, "What is wrong with you!" I did nothing to provoke this question. There is nothing wrong with me. I have a doctor for a spouse to attest. It did gravely hurt me. He is as hurtful as his homiles are vacuous. I tried to respect him, even trusting him with my sins in confession.
  
  In exchange, I am shamed. I asked him for help after thickly coating my request with the assurance that I did not want to disturb anyone if they were busy. Father Jim nevertheless scolded me so badly I won't go back to the church. Where you worship matters. Please worship with a priest who'll best foster your love for Christ.

  I was baptized here Easter Vigil 2017. I love this parish, and the priests.
