BORN IN 1927, MOTHER SUSAN FOUNDED THE ST. GREGORYS' CHARITY HOME IN KERALA, INDIA IN 1973. SHE IS RENOWNED IN HER HOME COUNTRY WHERE A DOCUMENTARY ABOUT HER REMARKABLE LIFE APPEARED ON TELEVISION. LIKE MOTHER THERESA OF CALCUTTA, HER EVERY EFFORT IS SPENT IN THE SERVICE OF THE POOR. SHE IS REGARDED BY MANY AROUND THE WORLD AS A LIVING SAINT. IN 2006 HER CHARITABLE WORKS RECEIVED THE ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND APPROBATION OF THE CATHOLIC NEAR EAST WELFARE ASSOCIATION (WWW.CNEWA.ORG), A PRIVATE PAPAL AGENCY WHICH OVERSEES VATICAN HUMANITARIAN RELIEF IN ASIA, AFRICA AND EASTERN EUROPE. AT AGE 80 IN 2007, MOTHER SUSAN CONTINUES TO WORK TIRELESSLY FOR THE POOR. SHE DEPENDS ENTIRELY UPON DONATIONS FROM HER MORE FORTUNATE BENEFACTORS AROUND THE WORLD. HER STORY, AND THE STORY OF THE MERCY FUND INCORPORATED, HAVE BEEN FEATURED PROMINENTLY IN THE NAPLES DAILY NEWS AND THE PROVIDENCE JOURNAL. MOTHER SUSAN, LIKE SAINT FRANCIS OF ASSISI, BEARS THE STIGMATA OF THE LORD. THIS PHENOMENON HAS VEEN VALIDATED BY THE APOSTOLIC AUTHORITES OF THE CHURCH AND BY AMERICAN DOCTORS WHO PERFORMED EXTENSIVE TESTS ON HER. EACH FRIDAY, IN A MIRACLULOUS SPIRITUAL EVENT, SHE RELIVES TRULY THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST. |
