A Story Of Suffering And Hope

Lessons From Latino Youth

BY EILEEN MCNERNEY

Brief Description:
In 1993, a 16 year-old was shot and killed behind Sister Eileen McNerney's residence. Sr. McNerney gathered support and began St. Joseph's Workshop in 1995, a successful, non-profit continuing education project for mostly Latino young men and women in crisis. The stakes were high and the future often seemed grim as she let them teach her about life, theirs and hers. Who ministered to whom? Was it the youth, surrounded by love, who were transformed or their love that transformed her?
