.-
An order of religious sisters in Colombia is suing a national television
network for producing a series that it says twists the facts about the
life of the order�s founder, the first Colombian saint.
Saint Laura Montoya Upegui is the subject of a new series on Caracol
Television, entitled "Laura: an extraordinary life." The first of 25
episodes was broadcast on July 29.
In a statement released July 24, the Congregation of the Missionary
Sisters of Mary Immaculate and Saint Catherine of Sienna announced that
they were suing Caracol over the series. The congregation was founded by
St. Laura, who is the first Colombian to be canonized.
