In the General Audience in St. Peter’s Square, the Board of the German Women for Mission presented to the Pope a petition, asking him to urge the bishops in Nigeria to also work against female “cutting” and so support the project the PHJC sisters have been planning for several months now. The Pope seemed to be interested in this problem and accepted the petition willingly. Among the women was also Sr. Christeta, who is the spiritual adviser of this group based in Koblenz.
