Ms. Defar won gold for distance running. She's from Ethiopia (Orthodox). She immediately fell to her knees and unpinned a beautiful icon of OUR LADY & HER LITTLE SON from inside her shirt and held it up to the camera.
Dear Sister, please excuse the off-topic question, but I was wondering if you are the Pauline "Sister Helen" who will be at the Holy Family Institute Triduum this September? All the best and keep up the good work.
Yes, Sister, I am making my arangements now to be there. As one new to HFI I am really looking forward to it and if we have a chance to talk that will be the icing on the cake.
Usain Bolt and the other two Jamaican Olympic medal winners in the 200m all praised/acknowledged God either just before/after the race. And all with big smiles on their faces ..
I was going to be an ornithologist, but God zapped me and I now belong to the Daughters of St. Paul, an international congregation of religious women dedicated to spreading God's Word through the media: www.pauline.org. I give workshops to teens and adults on Media Literacy, Philosophy, and Theology of the Body. I'm the movie reviewer for "The Catholic New World," Chicago's Catholic newspaper.
I'm finishing an M.A. in Media Literacy Education; have a B.A. in philosophy and theology from St. John's U, NYC; and have a Certificate in Pastoral Youth Ministry from the Center for Youth Ministry Development, Naugatuck, CT. I studied screenwriting at UCLA and Act One, Hollywood. I'm the writer/producer of www.MediaApostle.com and a co-producer on www.The40Film.com
