    I was one of those abandoned children in 1969... stayed with nuns for 7 years. I was treated with the outmost respect, love and compassionate attention that I ever received. What has done to my life? Has given me a heart to feel the aches of this world... and know what Love is...
    Thank you my God and Father for rescuing me when I was only 22 months old; thank You for sending me an angel that looked after me for all those years and who I still write to every Holiday since then;
    And thank you sister Mary Agnes for being who you are, God Bless you and keep you in His Grace

    I am Mary Agnes also, and I thoroughly enjoyed your talk. Looking beyond the behavior to the real person is something Im working on. My former husband appears by all the symptoms listed, to be a full fledged narcissist. He has abused it only me in our 20 year marriage, but our children. These people are out to destroy. I always said that he is just a little boy afraid and alone. While I must stay "no contact" I pray to the bBlessed Mother each day to take care of him and lead him back to God. Your illustration of that little girl was an eye opener to me. Thank you and God Bless

You assumed it was a hate message against a religious organisation. Beautiful humans belong too and work for God, not doctrine. Her work transcends the name of an organisation. Good works are owned by God not a religious name.

I can't remember who's saying it is (apologies)....but it goes something like..."Be kind to unkind people, they need it the most!" I trully believe it is HURT coming out as HATE...it takes a very descerning person, to recognise that...I believe you, and your collegues, have been given that gift.

    What a blessing to hear..not because I was abused or in an orphanage but because in everyday life I know adults who have held in to anger for years. I have prayed for them and tried to be helpful...I wish I had a window to see if any thing I have done has been a blessing to them. For example simply listening with my full attention. Truthfully adults seem to have a harder time telling when something has touched their life but boy telling me how miserable they are is no problem. Sometimes at high octaves that actually frighten me. Everyone gets angry. Learning ways of coping like running, even though life is too and soo busy, would go along way. I have found coping skills mostly because I was always feeling abused at work, short staffed and in a High stress environment. Now I just do what is before me today and pray over the feeling then let it go. God or Christ never said life would be easy and to serve Christ is more important and do the best that this human can. I am also happy to hear a nun describe her service to God. Orphanages are always depicted like Oliver Twist...I am happy the children were blessed with you.

    Thank you sister. God Bless you. I raised 2 sons, who had issues, some related to divorce. My sons are now in their late thirties, and finally successful, in their careers. This has only happened , for one, in the past 2 years. They are both very intelligent, charming and handsome. However, I’m still their Mom. They love me, as much as I love them. It’s been a long tough road. “Less Traveled” I like you took the time (my whole life) , and I would do it all over again. They have residual issues, however ,they are loving productive men. Had I not put in all I did daily for 35 years, they may not be in this good place today. The total commitment of unconditional love Works. Every child needs and deserves this.. I have to add, that they from the moment they were born, have been the greatest joy of my life. Sister, my long winded response, was to let you know what a beautiful gift you give these beautiful little pained souls. Keep up the great work. 🙏🙏🙏🌹

Mary Agnes you are making a huge wonderful difference -- not only to the children that you touch but to those of us who need this message to look beyond the noise of everyday life, angry responses and to see the humanity in each of us .

    When I began to watch this video it was just like any TED-talk, which normally doesn't bring tears to my eyes... but as soon as sister Agnes mentioned the girl who said that it was her first safe night the tears kept running. And it brought a lot of associations to my mind of how we usually live our lives without any considerations of what really is important in life. It is not to have an abundance of things in the first hand (a fairly good standard helps), but the primary is to be loved.

    What a gift she has to let the children feel , to give them her time and attention so they feel valued and not judge or preach. So much like Jesus. I'm praying that God blesses her ministry and many more children find healing under her care.

    What I picked up from this talk was about the difference I could make to someones life...and I work with people who have dementia. This lady appears very kind and I thoroughly enjoyed the talk. I was not put off by what she was wearing and who she was....and she wasn't preaching religion. In an hours time I will be visiting a lady with Parkinsons disease and this talk will stay with me. I am so grateful I watched this video through.

    Beautiful sister ( In the spiritual sense).
    These experiences relate to Sunday school teaching. If you had been teaching in church for long enough, you may have encountered with children with disturbing behavior ( biting Sunday school teachers, throwing stones to church ushers, screaming all the way with no reasonable explanation, and all that kind of stuff).
    It's one of the most difficult experiences, but at the same time, one of the most rewarding.
    This is why Christian churches, Catholic or Protestants ( In my particular case Pentecostal) are so important to the process of healing our communities.

    Bless you and all tje other sisters world wide. I went to a Catholic school kindergarten through 8th grade. Then came a public high school and all the mess and trouble that comes with it. I graduated in 1983 11th grade education. Never made it to 12th grade. Now at 54 years i am finally finding Jesus!. I had my bouts with alcohol, injuries, surgeries, drug addiction and all that comes with that. I am searching for Jesus because I want and need more. I just wanted you to know that I have sooo many fond memories of growing up in that Catholic school, St Michaels Parochial school in Annandale Virginia and think about those days frequently, and when I do I know in my heart that those were truly the best days of my life. Now getting old I have come to the conclusion that with The blood of Jesus which was spilled for me, I have the opportunity to make tje days ahead the best in my life and just wanted you to know that it all started when I was a little boy in 1970 and you nuns are my fondest memory and a mental go to which is bright, shiny, and warm. Thank you for doing what you do. Never as long as you live forget what you do and your sisters of the past have done for so many kids. If i had to do it all over again i would do the same and change the years from 14 to 54. Bless you and all of your sisters, one of my fondest memories.
