    Congratulations Sister Jennifer. I am overwhelmed at this news. Religious Sisters almost all, engage themselves in Education, Health n other social Missions. You have ventured out in this unique mission, which decades back, couldn't be even thought of by Congregations, n even we lay people. May Jesus, the Divine Master guide n lead you to serve those deprived of legal facilities n see that justice be served to them.

    Why did you ignore my Mangalore church attacks comments but straight away started with Bishop Franco Mulakkal. Don't you have something to say against Mangalore church attacks by BJP?????..... FYI, Bishop Franco Mulakkal is from Kerala and this particular incident happened in Punjab so Sr Jenifer Pinto has no jurisdiction on other states. You can appoint your own national communal legal aid for this task. Mulakkal has already been charged and in jail. Go get some other excuse H. Acharya.

    Hearty congratulation, Sr. Jenifer. We are glad to hear your new appointment and recognition.

    I know Catholic sisters stand up for the needs of humans, pray for the most vulnerable, educate the next generation, help others grow in their relationship with God, provide aid to the poor and protect young from becoming wayward.

    Catholic sisters are compassionate and dedicated. They will not be stopped by lack of assistance, funding, or resources. They will not be stopped regardless of limitations of help or tiredness. That is what I saw in the daily life of a sister.

    Sisters care people, and in a particular way reach out to those who are vulnerable, people who are sick, oppressed, discriminated against, suffering, in pain, scared, lonely, lost, marginalized. Most of all, by their vows of poverty, chastity and obedience, they have proven to us that they have given up the worldly pleasure for the glory of God
