CWN Editor's Note: Pope Francis has accepted the resignation of Archbishop Andrzej Dziega of Szczecin-Kamien, who had been charged with failure to respond to abuse complaints.

The 71-year-old archbishop said that he was stepping down because of a “radical weakening of my condition.” In a letter to his priests he apologized for “incomplete understanding of specific circumstances.”
