Abstract

"Comforting the afflicted" takes on new meaning when you think about people sitting on death row. Who isn't afflicted in such a situation? Is it possible to comfort prisoners facing death AND their victims' families? Sister Helen Prejean, author of Dead Man Walking, explains how she handles these and other goals as she ministers to criminals and survivors.
