Sister Molly Munoz
Sister Molly has been working in Hispanic pastoral ministry with migrant workers since 1993. She is known in Colorado as the "Mother Teresa of the Latinos," traveling hundreds of miles per month, working seven days a week, attending to the migrants' physical, spiritual and emotional needs. She provides food and clothing, medical assistance, transportation, sacramental preparation, counseling, prison visitations, court appearances, documentation processing, legal aid and, above all, friendship. She has a trust relationship with the migrants who are often exploited and denied basic human rights. Not surprisingly Molly said, "I have no time to relax, but I do go to Mass and the gym every day. I am my own boss with six parishes supporting me. It is not work, it is a pleasure to minister to the poor."
