Happy Birthday to Sr Helen Prejean. She didnโ€™t start out as a courageous champion in the struggle against the death penalty. She just tried to listen where Jesus was calling her, taking one step, then another.

If one day the US aligns with the vast majority of countries, and heeds the teaching of Pope Francis that state-sponsored executions are immoral, it may owe much to this Cajun Sister of St Joseph, and her compassion, courage, a sense of humor. Happy 80th @helenprejean ๐ŸŽ‚โฃ๏ธ๐ŸŽˆ๐Ÿ’
