(CNN) When leaders of the country's two largest religious groups -- the Catholic Church and Southern Baptist Convention -- hold meetings this week, the separate conferences will have a common agenda: clergy sexual abuse. Messengers worship at the 2018 annual meeting of the Southern Baptist Convention in Dallas. Greear, president of the Southern Baptist Convention, speaks during a preliminary meeting at the group's annual gathering Monday in Birmingham, Alabama. Right now, those complaints are only handled during annual meetings, when the Southern Baptist Convention is officially in session, said Moore. Rachael Denhollander, an abuse survivor and advocate, has worked for a year on Southern Baptist President Greear's committee to address sexual abuse.
