Maine Town Marks Attack That Killed Nuns
Thu Jan 26, 5:00 AM ET
WATERVILLE, Maine - Nearly a decade ago, a mentally ill man who dreamed of becoming a Catholic priest burst through the doors of the chapel of Servants of the Blessed Sacrament.
Mark Bechard, who had regularly attended services there, went on a rampage, stabbing and stomping elderly nuns. Two of them were killed and two others injured, including one left in a coma.
“While it’s in our past now, it’s still very much on our minds,” Police Chief John Morris said ahead of the 10th anniversary Friday. “The sights we saw will never be forgotten.”
LOVE the last line------
“Our stance is still forgiveness. We stand by that,” she said.
Such compassion from some truly spiritual women!
God Bless them-
