"Witness to Integrity" is a first-person account of the historic
dispute between the Immaculate Heart of Mary Sisters (IHM) and
James Francis McIntyre, the Cardinal Archbishop of Los Angeles.
Former Mother General of the Immaculate Heart of Mary Sisters and
president of the Immaculate Heart Community, Anita Caspary, IHM,
tells her story of the Immaculate Heart of Mary Sisters'
motivations and struggles in their claim for authority and freedom
to live a Christian life in accordance with their consciences. The
conflicts that lead a part of the Immaculate Heart Sisters
'Community to become an ecumenical community are described with
vividness.
Anita Caspary's personal narrative reflections provide in-depth
details of the story that has captured media attention in books,
television documentaries, and plays. In addition, the use of
original sources from the Immaculate Heart Community archives that
have not been open to the public assists in producing new insights
and correcting inaccuracies and myths.
