Reflections from the pastoral ministry of an Evangelical Catholic Priest.
Sr. Meena, what a brave, courageous person!
ReplyDeleteI recall a Ursuline nun, Sr. Dianna Ortiz, 39, who in 1989 was abducted by Guatemalan security forces, then tortured in many different ways and gang raped repeatedly. She escaped only to find herself pregnant. Rape led to terminate her pregnancy.
I remember watching Sister Ortiz’s Mother Superior on television. She stood by the Roman Catholic Church’s teaching about abortion. But made a strong point, what happened to Sister Dianna Ortiz was between her and God. To this day Sr. Dianna is still a nun.
I do need to remember to pray for those who work in dangerous zones. Especially the missionaries.
