This week marks Global Sisters Report’s first anniversary as a website bringing you news about Catholic sisters around the world and the people they work with – as well as their own knowledge and opinions through their writing.
In fact, we’ve published work by nearly 200 different people and posted 1,257 different articles – from GSR Today blogs, to the Visual Life feature, Three Stats and a Map, A Nun’s Life podcasts and the many columns by sisters. Of course there is also news from our reporters, NCR’s contributions and the stories we share from Catholic News Service.
At the bottom of each article is a button prompting readers to “say thanks.” It’s a way we can count notes of appreciation.
As of last Friday, 25 articles had received 400 or more “thanks” from you.
