IMPRESSIONS OF HAITI In December 1989, Sister Joan Chittister was part of a Pax Christi USA fact-finding delegation to Haiti. During that visit, Sister Joan met with church and government leaders, Jean- Bertrand Aristide, the future elected president of Haiti, and peasant organizations trying to bring freedom to the then military controlled government. We are printing generously from the journal she kept during that trip>>>READ THE REST OF THIS WEEK'S IDEAS IN PASSING.

Each week of Lent, Joan Chittister reflects on one of the women’s stories in light of the Sunday Scripture and invites you to contemplate the impact on your own spirituality. She poses the question: “Why would anyone take on such difficulties, not only for the sake of their own lives, but for the sake of others as well?” In your answer to this question, she writes, is the very meaning of both Lent and life.
