On a Tuesday afternoon in Cupar, the main doors to the two-tone brick
St. Patrick’s Catholic Church are locked up. The white-on-black sign

The rectory is similarly quiet. Its resident, retired priest Robert MacKenzie, has been moved to a retirement home in Regina in light of allegations of sexual abuse in Scotland dating back 36 years. “He claims he’s innocent,” said Archdiocese of Regina Archbishop Don Bolen, who met with MacKenzie on Monday morning, just hours after returning home from Rome.
