Cardinal John O\u2019Connor, a navy chaplain-become-archbishop of New York, paid a visit to the Dachau concentration camp in Germany, where thousands of people had been tortured and killed during the Second World War.\u00a0<\/span>As he placed his hands into the semicircular red brick ovens, he said he had a profound spiritual experience in which he felt the intermingled ashes of Christian and Jew, rabbi and priest.\u00a0<\/span>Pierced to the heart, he cried out: \u201cMy God!\u00a0<\/span>How can human beings do this to other human beings?<\/i>\u201d In that moment, he made a promise: to do everything in his power to protect human life.

But years of preaching, advocating, and laboring with others to restore a sense of the dignity of human life yielded only a discouraging lack of results.\u00a0<\/span>Cardinal O\u2019Connor wondered at this, and brought it, as he did all things, to prayer. And, finally, it came to him: a different kind of response was needed.\u00a0<\/span>Reflecting on the life of Christ, the Cardinal would say, \u201cHe preached eloquently; He worked spectacular miracles. But He did not make possible the salvation of the world until He laid down His own life.<\/i>\u201d\u00a0<\/span>To counter what he understood to be a \u201cculture of death<\/i>\u201d pervading the fibers of society, at the root of which was a deep crisis of faith – a spiritual response was needed.\u00a0This spirit of contempt for human life was a demon that could “only be cast out by prayer\u00a0and fasting.” (cf. Mk 9:29)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

An idea began to slowly percolate in the Cardinal\u2019s mind and heart.\u00a0<\/span>After years of prayer, he penned an unadorned headline in a local Catholic New York paper: \u201cHelp Wanted: Sisters of Life.”<\/i>\u00a0<\/span>He proceeded to describe his vision for a religious community of women who would give themselves fully to the protection and enhancement of the sacredness of every human life, beginning with the most vulnerable.[\/vc_column_text][nectar_btn size=”medium” button_style=”see-through-2″ hover_color_override=”#ffffff” hover_text_color_override=”#000000″ icon_family=”none” url=”https:\/\/sistersoflife.org\/vocations\/” text=”vocations info” margin_top=”30″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none” enable_animation=”true” animation=”fade-in-from-bottom”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_image=”538″ bg_position=”left top” bg_repeat=”no-repeat” scene_position=”center” top_padding=”100″ bottom_padding=”100″ text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”padding-5-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”right” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”2752,2755,7111,371″ layout=”2″ item_spacing=”2px” gallery_style=”5″ load_in_animation=”none” img_size=”300×300″][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”padding-3-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”3px” column_border_color=”#4b807c” column_border_style=”solid” enable_border_animation=”true” bg_image_animation=”none”][nectar_animated_title heading_tag=”h2″ style=”color-strip-reveal” color=”Accent-Color” text=”1991″][vc_column_text]\n

The article was reprinted across the nation, and to the surprise of the Cardinal, hundreds of letters poured in. On June 1, 1991, eight women gathered in New York to form the new community of the Sisters of Life. Since then, the community has grown to over a hundred Sisters from across the globe: USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, England, Spain, El Salvador, and the Philippines, and expanded missions from our birth place in New York City, to Denver, CO, Stamford, CT, Philadelphia, PA, Phoenix, AZ, Washington, D.C., and Toronto, Canada.<\/span><\/p>\n

Just as the Resurrection of Jesus came after His death on the Cross, so too, out of the ashes of Dachau came new Life. So, yes, we know the power of death. But we also know that death and darkness are not the end of the story. Love is stronger. \u201cThe light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.<\/i>\u201d (John 1:5)[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_content” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”light” text_align=”center” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][nectar_video_lightbox link_style=”play_button_2″ nectar_play_button_color=”Default-Accent-Color” image_url=”2060″ hover_effect=”defaut” box_shadow=”none” border_radius=”none” play_button_size=”default” video_url=”https:\/\/vimeo.com\/183570296″][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”padding-3-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” centered_text=”true” background_color=”#4b807c” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column_text]\n
