We invite you to join us for a virtual prayer service celebrating the 40th Anniversary of the North American Women Martyrs in El Salvador. Maryknoll Sisters Maura Clark and Ita Ford, Ursuline Sister Dorothy Kazel, and lay missionary Jean Donovan ministered in El Salvador during its 12 year war, a war in which over 70,000 civilians were killed. For their Works of Mercy and compassion, they were martyred on Dec. 2, 1980.
