207 Sr. Tatum McWhorter: Chiara Petillo

On Wednesday, March 31, 2021, Pam Marvin had the pleasure of speaking with Sr. Tatum of the Apostles of the Interior Life at St. Mary's Catholic Center in College Station, Texas. The subject was one dear to Sr. Tatum's heart and it showed through in the remarkable, sincere interview she gave to us. For years, Sr. Tatum has been in close spiritual friendship with Servant of God Chiara Petillo, who died of cancer in 2012 while still a very young woman and mother of new baby boy. A seemingly normal, ordinary Italian woman, Chiara gave a Christian witness in the face of suffering, anguish, and disease that is arguably heroic. Pam and Sr. Tatum gave us many details from Chiara's short life and discussed some of the virtues she embodied. Please remember to go out and love your neighbor.
