At this standing-room only event, guests learned that Sister Dorothy Stang was an ordinary woman--an ordinary woman with an all-consuming love for the poor, a willingness to live simply (all her possessions fit in one box), and amazing reserves of courage. In a dramatic, original presentation that included dirt, jelly sandwiches and a chainsaw, Sr. Jon Julie Sullivan gave the audience a peek into Dorothy's life and shared how Dorothy's childhood and education helped cultivate her concern for the poor.
