Ministry on Death Row: This is my body


Fr. George Williams, S.J., the Catholic chaplain at San Quentin, writes, This is my body which will be given up for you.  These words were spoken at the last meal of a man about to be condemned by the state and executed.  It’s strange how the words of the Gospel take on a different resonance on Death Row.”
