Catholic Reading Wednesday and Catechesis Tonight!

With many thanks to our awesome curator, Karen Celano, you can delve into a faith-related news article each Wednesday! Karen writes:

On October 17, Mother Antonia Brenner, a Catholic sister and prison minister, passed away at age 86. Mother Brenner was a twice-divorced mother of eight who felt a vocation towards the religious life. The communities that she served encouraged her endeavors, but, because of her age and status as a divorcee, no existing religious order would accept her - so she founded her own order, the Servants of the Eleventh Hour, and had it approved by the local bishop. For decades she worked among prisoners in Tijuana, Mexico, and her life became the subject of Pulitzer Prize-winning biography.

Her remarkable story shows it's never too late to find your vocation. The path to sanctity may be winding, but it is always open, if we remain open to following it.
