RIP Sister Germana - Famous Catholic Nun Known for Recipes Dies, at Age 82, who Wrote "When Angels Cook"

«I have a weight on my heart: how to say Happy Easter with what is going on in this world of ours? If we widen our gaze to all humanity, it seems increasingly difficult to find the place and time to exchange greetings for serenity and peace. And the more painful facts, the people involved and the suffering come closer, the more they upset us and also shake the faith. Who dies from bombs, who dies from faith, who falls victim to AIDS and hunger, who dies in the earthquake, who just born, who dies from drugs, who from alcohol ... Yet Easter is a passage that year after year it follows a path that comes from afar and takes us far beyond what we can imagine, desire, hope: a life beyond death, a life without end ... Utopia, dream? The choice to believe or not to believe is so personal and profound as to give an Easter meaning to our whole existence. This is why I wish you a happy Easter in the original sense which is what still responds to our hopes even in the midst of a reality that challenges our faith ».
