Hello John,
Embrace the wisdom, insight, and kindness in Mission of Grace: The Story of Saint Marianne Cope, celebrating the life work of this true American saint who did not shy away from the sick.
"I am hungry for the work. I am not afraid of any disease."
—Mother Marianne Cope, July 12, 1883.
Read the inspiring story of Saint Marianne Cope's commitment to serving on the island of Molokai with those stricken with Hansen’s disease, known then as leprosy, with love, compassion, respect, and grace, often in the face of both hardship and resistance from authorities blind to their needs.
"Saint Marianne shows us that this world's ways can lead us to the Most High in both darkness and light."—Margaret Carney, OSF, from the foreword.
