Catholic orders in Rome sheltered more than 3,000 Jews during Holocaust

Post by Stella »

This newly discovered document adds more to the history of Catholic involvement in saving the Jews. When I began reading about it I was thinking how this might help rehabilitate Pius XII's reputation but reading further I can understand how we still need to understand the full gamut of Rome's stand at that time.

The Catholic League has great resources about the Catholic Church saving many Jewish lives during Holocaust.

The Yad Vashem is another source as well.
