Two Daughters of Charity Dead in Peru Quake
“We got word that two of our sisters were kiled. They were at a funeral mass in St. Clement’s church in Pisco, Peru and the roof fell in on them. There were five D. of C. at the mass and three survived.
Sister Antonieta Perla, who was the former Visitatrix and the sister who was her secretary both were killed. They have found the Sister Secretary but as yet they haven’t found S. Antonieta.
As you can imagine it is a real blow to the Province of Peru as they were both very much loved. Blessed be God!
Also we are told that 15 members of the family of the person for which the funeral was held also were killed.”
