Clockwise from top: Sister
Crocetta gives a “good night”
talk. Each girl is responsible for
washing her own clothes by
hand. All the girls help in meal
preparation, both to share the
work and to learn household
chores before they marry.
Sister Deva teaches classical
dance. When Paul Wilkes
spoke at St. James Cathedral
in Seattle of the severe
malnutrition at Hassan,
members bought cows and
funded construction of a
cowshed.
“ My mind was
a jumble of emotions
— rage, pity and
helplessness. Then
one clear thought
pushed all others
out of the way: Reena,
you have had a hor-rible
past. Somehow,
some way, I want
to make your future
the best I can. ”
