Italian Nun Slain In Mogadishu - Asks God To Forgive Her Killers by feelgood(m): 1:24pm On Sep 26, 2006
Pope tribute to slain Italian nun

The pope said Sister Sgorbati died with forgiveness on her lips
Pope Benedict XVI has paid tribute to an Italian nun killed in Somalia who is reported to have forgiven her attackers as she lay dying.
Sister Leonella Sgorbati was attacked, along with her bodyguard, outside the hospital in Mogadishu where she worked.

Some suspect the shooting was connected to recent remarks by the Pope which caused anger across the Islamic world.

Pope Benedict spoke ahead of Monday's planned meeting with ambassadors from predominantly Muslim countries.

He said her sacrifice was the most authentic type of Christian testimony, which showed "the victory of love over hate and evil".

"This nun, who served the poor and children in Somalia for many years, died with the word 'forgiveness' on her lips," the Pope told pilgrims and tourists during his Sunday address at his summer villa at Castelgandolfo near Rome.

Moral: That is real christianity on display in the face of irrational/wicked/cruel and evil people. God bless Africa and the blood of the
saints will not be shed in vain as Africa is for Jesus!!

There is no need to ask God to forgive them because HE already has. All they need do is seek the blood that cleanseth all sins.

This is certainly a display of the true Christian spirit.
Her killers will not be forgiven unless they repent and ask for forgiveness from Elohim.

Islam have destroyed Somalia, that is why the country is riddled with violence.

Where are other Islamic countries ? They are the ones who should be helping Somalia with humanitarian issues. Instead they are neglected to their fate by their Islamic brothers and sisters. Which goes a long way to show that nothing good comes from Muhammedan Islam.

I pray God should forgive her killers because she is talking care of them.
