I’m not sure if you caught the interview with Sister Rosemary Nyirumbe on the Colbert Report. In it she talks about abductions in Africa, and how important it is for people to care. Sister Rosemary was such a joy and an inspiration in the video I thought I would share it with you all here:

Sister Romemary was listed as one of Time’s 100 most influential people. They write of her:

In Gulu, Uganda, Sister Rosemary has made it her mission to provide within an orphanage a home, a shelter for women and girls whose lives have been shattered by violence, rape and sexual exploitation. At the Saint Monica Girls’ Tailoring Center she runs, those women can become themselves again, thanks to the security and comfort they feel — a tremendous accomplishment in a country still fragile from years of civil war. But what truly fascinates the people who have the privilege to meet with Sister Rosemary — as I did when I narrated a film about her, Sewing Hope — is her magnetic and contagious energy. For girls who were forcibly enlisted as child soldiers, Sister Rosemary has the power to rekindle a bright light in eyes long gone blank. For women with unwanted children born out of conflict, she allows them to become loving mothers at last. The traumas she heals are unfathomable, but the reach of her love is boundless.

What an amazing ministry, life, and example of the Catholic Faith. I pray that we all might be inspired by this example of Christ’s love.
