Catholic Extension hosts Latina Sisters for justice
Chicago Catholic September 15, 2021
Forty-five women religious from seven Latin American countries gathered around a memorial near the place where Chicago Police Officer Ella French was killed to pray for peace and for all first responders on Sept. 3.
It was the final event of Catholic Extension’s weeklong U.S.-Latin American Sisters Exchange program, in which the sisters attended sessions at Loyola University Chicago on restorative justice efforts in Chicago and explored themes of justice and reconciliation in Catholicism.
