Fr Tim Finigan has the delightful news of "a small contemplative Benedictine community called Little Sisters Disciples of the Lamb. There are seven sisters, five of whom have Downs Syndrome. They have recently moved to a new location "near a large Benedictine Monastery". (That would be Fontgombault.)
90% of children with Downs Syndrome are killed before seeing the light of day. Small as it is, this community's charming and gentle example deserves to echo around the globe as a testament that people are not worthless just because they have trisomy."
