AMERICAN NUN SHUNS LUXURY FOR MEXICAN JAIL
The cell at the end of the dark hallway barely fits a cot, a desk and a folding chair. This is home for Sister Antonia Brenner, an American nun who was raised in Beverly Hills but abandoned a life of privilege to live in a notorious Mexican jail.

| QUOTE (From the report) |
| "I don't understand why people are so amazed," she says. "To give help is easy. To ask for it is hard." |
This woman has to be some sort of angel and she actually got the name "Prison Angel" from the inmates. She even quelled prison riots by praying first and then walking into it. Such courage, sacrifice and faith - truly a blessed woman.

What a wonderful story. What surprises me the most is that until she was 50 something years old she was living this rich lifestyle and then all of the sudden because of her failed marriages, she decided to completely changed her lifestyle and give service to others. The prison guards say that she has the ability to calm down the prisoners and tell them things nobody can tell them. It is just amazing to me the love this woman has for this people, to the point of living in a jail to serve others. What an example!
