“A group of Trappist monks in Iowa have donated a handmade casket to bury 9-year-old Christina Green, the youngest victim in the Saturday attack that killed six and wounded 13 others in Arizona…”

I cried when reading this. Afterward, I read it to my mom. She cried.

The monks weren’t contacted until Tuesday morning, but were able to complete the casket and express ship it to Tucson that same day.

Here is the website of New Melleray Abbey, where the monks live.
