The History of Sister Jeannine Gramick's "Ministry"

Sister Jeannine Gramick and the Mother Teresa Awards
By Randy Engel

Introduction

In November 2006, Sr. Jeannine Gramick, the notorious pro-abortion and pro-homosexual dissenter from Church teachings and co-founder of New Ways Ministry, was named a recipient of the Mother Teresa Award from the St. Bernadette Institute of Sacred Art in Albuquerque, NM.

The award recognizes "the achievements of those who beautify the world, especially in the fields of religion, social justice and the arts," and acknowledges and honors "special souls for choosing to share themselves and their gifts with the world," states Dan Paulos, the Art Institute's founder and President of the Board of Directors.[1] Nominations come from the public at large. The Board of Directors of the Mother Teresa Awards and the Art Institute makes the final selection of laureates.

The award began to attract national attention in 2004 after Sister Mary Nirmala, Superior General of the Missionaries of Charity of India, gave permission to the Institute to name its award after Mother Teresa "for the glory of God and the good of His people." Sadly, the nomination of Sr. Gramick "for her role as American Human Rights Activist, especially in the field of Spirituality," neither glorifies God nor benefits His people.

The nomination and acceptance tribute to Sr. Gramick found on the Mother Teresa Awards official Web site features a picture of the nun, her anti-life fangs well hidden behind a facade of sweetness and light; a short acceptance statement — "I humbly accept this award on behalf of all who are oppressed, especially members of any sexual minority. I pray for an integration of spirituality and human sexuality"; and a summary of her 30 year struggle to secure "justice and peace for sexual minorities." It is a public relations scam of the first order that needs to be exposed point by point, starting with mythos that the cause Gramick has championed for more than three decades is a work of justice and peace.

The more I learn the more convinced I am of the foul and nauseating assault being leveled against Christ and His Church, especially by those from within...
