As a proud Black Catholic, whose grandparents endured and helped end segregation in the Catholic school system in the south, this is wonderful to see. Thank you for being so generous with your spirit, especially during a spiritually demanding season. Btw, Sr. Aletheia, you were one of the very few religious that gave me courage and consolation during George Floyd's death and the aftermath. I actually found the screenshot of one of your responses on Instagram, in which you said "the reason the narrative on this issue is largely secular is because many religious people in this nation have dropped the ball." All this to say - a very deserved feature for those who have followed you for years.
Christina, what an incredible and inspiring legacy your family has. Thank you for sharing that. And thank you for your words of encouragement, I am grateful that my words were helpful to you in such a difficult time.
This is a critical lesson. We see heartless cruelty today as Federal policy, which more than half of US Catholics apparently support. Nothing will change inside or outside the Church without conversion of hearts.
God bless you, Sister! And your new order! May it flower and grow! I’ve said for years now that when we change hearts, I’m just laws will no longer matter! I’m so glad you went to the Selma event. You sisters are lights wherever you are!
Beautiful! I'm grateful to share the mission of changing hearts with you.
Amen. We are too Sara.
Thank you so much for everything you are doing.
Thanks so much Chimene.
Bless you all and your vital work!
Thank you Nora!
Beautiful reflection! May God continue to strengthen you all in your important work
Thanks so much Elise.
Loved this piece Sister. Thank you
Thank you Viviana!

Kind of ironic that you are quoting and honoring a man accused of sexual exploitation. https://theconversation.com/im-an-mlk-scholar-and-ill-never-be-able-to-view-king-in-the-same-light-118015#:~:text=In%20an%208%2C000%2Dword%20article,and%20living%20in%20Los%20Angeles.
Yes, I completely agree!
