Dominican Sisters of Houston: “Remember their Legacy, Building Pillars of Peace”
On Friday evening, December 2, 2016, the Dominican Sisters of Houston partnered with Campaign Nonviolence to host a prayer service commemorating the anniversary of the assassinations of Sisters Ita Ford, Dorothy Kazal, Maura Clarke and Maryknoll lay missionary Jean Donovan. The concept to partner with Campaign Nonviolence surfaced when the Justice, Peace and Care of Creation Commission discussed the Nonviolence and Just Peace Conference held in Rome April 11-13, 2016 which was co-sponsored by Pax Christi International and by the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace, Pax Christi International, and other international bodies. Campaign Nonviolence also participated in the International Day of Peace prayer in September.
