  • The Church, Abortion, and Sister Margaret Ellen Traxler
    The Church, Abortion, and Sister Margaret Ellen Traxler Robert McClory “A Chicago nun’s battle with Rome” Chicago Magazine, December 1985 Used with Permission At 11 p.m. on December 7, 1984, Sister Margaret Ellen Traxler had just finished night prayers in her small room at St. Patrick’s parish convent, on Chicago’s Far Southeast Side, when the telephone rang. The caller was Sister Maureen Murray, a superior of the School Sisters of Notre Dame, the Roman Catholic religious order to which Traxler belongs. “Peggy, I’m afraid I have some bad news,” said Murray, who then proceeded to read a letter that the international president of the order had just received. It was from Archbishop Jean Jerome Hamer, prefect of the Vatican’s Congregation on Religious and Secular Institutes-in other words, the man who oversees the affairs of Catholic nuns all over the world. The letter stated, in effect, that the authorities in her order should demand that Traxler recant a public declaration that she had signed two months earlier. Appearing as a full-page advertisement in The New York Times, the declaration had challenged the church’s official teaching on abortion. If Traxler refused to recant, Hamer’s letter said, she was to be threatened with removal from the order. Similar letters had been sent to the superiors of 23 other U.S. nuns and of two priests and two religious brothers who had signed the same declaration. There could be no doubt about the intent: the offenders were in serious trouble, and the Vatican meant business.

When the pandemic hit, the mission had to move its pantry outdoors. In the first few months of the pandemic when Chicago shut down due to COVID-19, the mission’s pantry was one of the only ones open in the city, so it saw a rise in the number of people coming for food each Tuesday. Today, it serves around 500 families each week with walk ups, drive-through and home delivery. 10 OUR SUNDAY VISITOR | IN FOCUS ABOVE LEFT: Sister Laura Soppet hands out numbers to patrons at the Our Lady of the Angels Food Pantry on Aug. 13, 2019.
