Utter ly unselfish and valiant, she sought to relieve the suffering, not only of her fellow Catholics, but of the persecuted Jews, some of them in her school. One day the Nazis came and demanded that she turn over all her Jewish students. Sister Maria knew that it would mean for them concentration camps and death. One high school girl was over come with fear. Sister Maria quicidy took off her nun’s habit and put it on the girl. Then she herself put over her head the yellow scarf; week at Hilton Head, of the Jew and said, “I’ll go for you. I’ll take your place.” Andi Mr. and Mrs. W. Sister Maria died as a Jew.

Yet that is what Jesus said was the way His disciples must take in following Him.
