Throughout the occupied territories, Catholic sisters were active
in resistance to the Nazis Based on letters and documents - not
seen for seventy years - written by the Catholic Sisters of Notre
Dame de Namur during the Nazi occupation of Belgium, this book
tells the remarkable story of these brave and faithful women, and
how they resisted the German forces. In great detail, these letters
document the lives of the sisters and convents under the Nazi
regime, revealing the hardships of being bombed and constant
hunger, and the executions of innocents. But they also tell the
story of how these remarkably courageous women worked to help
defeat the Nazis. Throughout the occupied territories, Catholic
sisters were active members of the resistance. From running
contraband to hiding resisters and Jews, and from spying for the
allies to small acts of sabotage, these extraordinary women risked
their lives to save others and to help bring an end to the war.
This is a story that deserves to be told.
