Cathleen Falsani Quotes

My nun, which is how I think of her, was the most profound witness for God's love I've ever encountered in this world.

What this sprightly, silly, lovely woman did from the obscurity of a faded convent in Rust Belt Chicago was to fulfill in a passionate, tireless way the supreme commandment of Jesus' gospel every day of her life.
