Sister Sarah Clarke
London, England
Irish-born, Sr. Sarah stumbled into her peace work during her days as a nun teaching art to Catholic school students in London. She ended up helping Irish prisoners in British jails who were entangled in the merciless acts of political warfare between Ireland and England.
Living in a constant state of terror herself, she drew upon her power of gratitude, her belief in Jesus, and her undaunted dedication to justice to sustain her through 50 years of serving these prisoners and their families.
