Abstract

The experience of a Sister from the Most Holy Trinity congregation, at the concentration camp of Auschwitz, shows us holiness as a key for interreligious dialogue, and for the dialogue with non-believers. The exemplary life of Sister Autsch produced a deep impact on those who lived with her, and motivated them to remain human beings in that terrible situation. It brought them to recognize in her faith and religiosity, the motor and the force of her heroic deed, and also to see God in her, in spite of not sharing her faith. In the same way, being able to accept and receive the other, loving him/her as God himself loves, independently of their creed or ideology, she spanned a bridge of communication which hardly could be achieved by any other means.
