Sisters of St. Joseph join in commemorating churchwomen of El Salvador

Today is the 30th anniversary of the martyrdom of four churchwomen in El Salvador. Thirty years! It doesn't seem possible. Three of our sisters have joined a delegation that is in El Salvador right now to commemorate this anniversary. The group is going with SHARE. SHARE works with communities in El Salvador. They support the empowerment of historically impoverished and marginalized communities, as they strive to meet both their most immediate needs and construct long-term sustainable solutions to the problems of poverty, underdevelopment and social injustice.

SHARE's website has a wealth of information about this event and a 28 page Commemoration Guide that is worth exploring.
