CWN Editor's Note: Pope Francis met on August 23 with Archbishop José Antonio Eguren Anselmi, who resigned his post as Archbishop of Plura, Peru, in April, after a Vatican investigation into charges that he was involved in financial misconduct.
The archbishop is a member of the Sodality for Christian Life (SCV), and the Vatican investigation appears to have been centered on his involvement with that group. Earlier this month the Vatican announced that Luis Fernando Figari, the founder of the SCV, had been expelled from the movement because of complaints of both sexual abuse and financial corruption.
