Little Sisters Deserve Pro Vita Recognition

I was happy to see the Little Sisters of the Poor receive the Diocese’s Pro Vita Award last weekend (See story on Page 3.). The Little Sisters have been the face of the Church’s struggle for religious freedom while going about its daily business. So, it was great to see them recognized for the work they do with the elderly, particularly at Queen of Peace Residence in Queens Village.
