“Grace comes and wakes us up,” says Sister Helen Prejean, who has dedicated her life to fighting capital punishment in the United States. “It’s what you do with it when it comes that counts.” 

Sister Helen Prejean, a death penalty abolitionist, is seen in Anaheim, Calif., calling for an end to the death penalty in this 2016 file photo.
