28865: Pilling (news) FW: Missionaries of Charity/Gonaive (fwd)





From: Sara Pilling <sara.pilling@verizon.net>

Dear All:

I'm writing to ask you to keep the sisters from Gonaive in your prayers. They
are all fine now, but they had a very frightening experience last night/early
this morning.  Their house was broken into by two thieves armed with guns.
They wanted money.  When the sisters didn't respond as quickly as they wanted
them to, one of them shot Sr. Abba in the arm (near the wrist area).  They
took all the money in the house (and everything else they could get their
hands on) and fled.  Before leaving, they promised to come back.

The bullet passed through Sister's arm, but broke a bone in the process.
She'll be coming into P-A-P tomorrow to be treated.

I'll keep you updated on her condition.

Peace.

Mary
