Read the story of an Australian nun who was excommunicated for reporting the sex abuse of a priest. She was the founder of a religious order to teach poor children. The sisters embraced poverty and their rule stressed no ownership of personal property with a dependence on Divine Providence to meet their needs.
A priest friend of the abuser set out to destroy her and the Sisters of St. Joseph, . She persevered and was later exonerated. She will be canonized by Pope Benedict in October. What a saint for our times. I am praying to this courageous sister asking her to intercede for her brother, Fr. Haley.
