Sr. Florence Steichen Csj

I did not know Sr. Florence. I have only read her obituary. ...and, she inspires me!! Her commitment to peace was rooted in values and prayer and executed through decades of concrete actions. May she rest in peace.

I couldn't be more grateful for my friendship with Sr. Florence and her witness to peace and justice. Her passion, especially for peace in the Holy Land, made her a force to be reckoned with. As a young person in Pax Christi USA, Sr. Florence encouraged my pursuit of a vocation for peacemaking. Later, when I became the executive director of Pax Christi USA, Sr. Florence was so gracious in offering me support and guidance. She was a shining light for peace with justice and I am already missing her brave and steadfast witness. Thank you Sr. Florence.
