This is the second mural in Derry to Sister Clare Crockett – the first was in her Brandywell home (see All Or Northing!) while this one is in Shantallow.
Crockett became a nun in 2001 and died in 2016 at the age of 33 in an earthquake in Ecuador – the mass for the seventh anniversary of her death was held last month (youtube).
A documentary film about Crockett’s life is available on youtube.
(Update, Jan 2025: Crockett is to be beatified – Irish Times)

Dear person praying to Sister Clare. Please get any unexplained bleeding checked. I had unexplained bleeding and it was cancer. Five years ago. Thank God it was successfully treated. The sooner these things are checked the better. Most things are fixable when treated early. Maybe it was Sister Clare lead me to read this but whatever the reason I hope that you act quickly on this as it seems she may be working between both of us. It is likely nothing but early intervention will mean you live a good long life with your grandchildren/future grandchildren.
