Sisters of Life

Reading the Touchstone Mere Comments blog this morning, I came across a link to a very encouraging article about a group of nuns in New York City who are providing a home and resources to unwed mothers, as an alternative to abortion. They give them a place to live for up to 6 months before the baby is born and up to a year after, which allows the women to study or work and gives them the support they need during a time that could otherwise be extremely hard both emotionally and financially.

Anyway, it is really awesome to see an example of people living out their faith in selflessness and commitment, making a profound difference in the lives of others, so I thought I'd pass it along :)
