problems has led to her "ministry of presence" in the West Bank. It
was April 23, 2002. Sr. Anne Montgomery RSCJ was hunkered down with
other Christian Peacemakers in an apartment in Bethlehem during the
standoff at the Church of the Nativity, where some 200 armed
Palestinians had taken refuge against advancing Israeli troops.

In the early 1970’s, the Society of the Sacred Heart sold its large
Motherhouse in Rome, in favor of moving to smaller and simpler
quarters. Excess funds from the sale of the property were designated
for the most poor and marginalized people in countries where we serve.
The commitment to share in this way became known as “The Solidarity
Fund”, and continues as such to this day.

She comes, great Spirit
She comes soon,
Comfort her spirit and care for her passage.
Let the grasses of the fields whisper her homecoming,
Let the lapping of the Mississippi water
Chant her back to you.

 Long Live our Mission in the State of Violence, of Terrorism, of War.
Our
country suffers from results of war and pillaging which continue to
destroy property and possessions, the moral of the people and even the
infrastructure of the country itself. There are families which have
entirely vanished and the majority of the population has no longer hope
for the future.
