Rome, Italy, Jun 23, 2020 / 10:30 am (CNA).- Sister Stan Mumuni dedicates her life to caring for abandoned children with birth defects in Ghana. When the coronavirus pandemic spread to West Africa, she said that she ran to the market to buy soap and supplies, but the prices had already tripled.
“We ran to the place. The price has gone too high. We have to get food to store food to be able to feed these children,” Sister Stan said at a virtual symposium June 23.
Some of the children cared for by her religious order have such severe disabilities that they cannot eat solid food, but rely on milk. “Getting milk to feed them everyday was very, very hard,” she said.

Georgia Governor
Brian Kempsigned a bill on Monday (May 10) repealing a Civil war-era law that allowed “citizen’s arrests” as a response to the killing of
House Bill 479 revokes a law first enacted in 1863 that allowed ordinary citizens to detain someone they thought committed a crime. The new legislation prohibits “citizen’s arrest” and limits the use of force a private citizen can use on others to only self-defense of a “forcible felony” such as armed robbery or murder.
The bill was first passed by the Georgia State House and Senate earlier this year and comes after three men were arrested and charged with murder after chasing and shooting Ahmaud Arbery while he jogged through a neighborhood last February. One of the men arrested captured the killing on cell phone video which eventually circulated social media and amplified demands for justice. It took more than two months for charges to be brought against the men.
