Take down your lantern from its niche and go out!
You may not res in firelight certainties,
Secure from drifting of doubt and fear.
You may not build yourself confining walls
And say: “Thus far, and thus, and thus far shall I walk,
And these things shall I do, and nothing more.”
Go out! For need calls loudly in the winding lanes
And you must seek Christ there.
Your pilgrim heart
Shall urge you still one pace beyond,
And love shall be your lantern flame

M. Raphael Consedine, PBVM

The basic storyline is that St Paul is commending sister Phoebe in a letter and requesting that she deserves to be rewarded by help from the church. Greet Priscilla and Aquila are the co-workers of St Paul and have also helped him so he is stating his gratefulness in the letter. St Paul might have written this letter for proof and praise towards Sister Phoebe, Greet Priscilla and Aquila.

Nano Nagle had a desire to help the poor and educate children in the catholic faith. This was during a time of a major social difficulty for Catholic people. She never gave up and started visiting the sick and old at the night times.  Nano is an inspiration to everyone. She braved her fears of being caught and acted justly through educating and visiting the poor even if it was agianst the Law. She gave everything up the help others.

Nano Nagle was born in Country Cork, Ireland into a wealthy family in 1718. Her father was a wealthy landowner and her mother was from a prominent family in County Tipperary. Due to The Penal Laws of the eighteenth century, the Nagle children were taught in secretly by tutors who were employed as servants.  In 1730, with help from relatives and friends Nano and her sister Anne were able to travel to the mainland of Europe to continue and develop their education. It is thought that Nano moved to France but was educated at the Benedictine monastery in Ypres, Belgium.

In Paris Nano lived a carefree style of life until it all came crashing down when in 1745 her father died. Anne and Nano returned to Ireland to live with her mother. Nano released how ignorant she was to the poverty of the Catholic Irish as the English had brought great destitution, so many unemployed and many had turned to crime to survive as a result of The Penal Laws.  Nano Nagle and her sister aided the poor as best they could. One day, Nano searched for a piece of silk fabric she had brought from France, only to discover that Anne had sold it to help a poor family in distress. It was her sister’s hospitality and love to the poor that motivated Nano call to God. She returned to France in hope to enter a religious order. Only to be haunted in France of memories of the poverty in Ireland, acting upon the advice from her spiritual teacher she returned home to Ireland and decided she would try to assist the people as best she could.

Nano rented a small wooden cabin in Cork and decided to start a school. She gathered poor children from the area and taught the basics of the Catholic faith from what she had been taught. She taught the children in secret braving the risk of being caught by English officers. Her work grew with much support from the community but no one was willing to help her in France due to the risks when she pleaded for a religious congregation to foster her program and offer her work stability for the future. Without regard for her own safety, she continued to selflessly educate children during the day and visited and nursed the sick at night. After waiting an Ursuline congregation agreed to help Nano training Irish girls in religious life if they would travel to France. Nano prepared the woman for their training in France using her own money and helped the women once they returned to Cork to establish a community of Ursuline Sisters. Only to release their commitment to the Ursuline Sisters and their rule of not allowing to go out of the convent and continue another mission, Nano's mission to educate poor children in Ireland. She never gave up hope and by the year 1796, she had established seven schools in Cork, two for boys and five for girls. The children were not only taught religious education but reading, writing, arithmetic and home management. She didn’t withdraw her support from the Ursulines, but she went about seeking other young women to work with her in the schools.

On the Christmas Eve 1775, three women joined her in living a simplistic religious life. The Sisters of the Charitable Instruction of the Sacred Heart of Jesus now known as The Presentation Sisters led by Nano were formed. They adopted a strict prayer life and wholeheartedly spent themselves in the service of the poor through their teaching in the schools Nano had illegally established, through their visiting of the sick, and their care of the aged. Nano was constant in her visiting of the poor in their cabins and making her way through the narrow streets in the evenings guided only by the light of a lantern, and she became known in Cork as ‘The Lady of the Lamp’. Nano Nagle died on 26 April 1784 with five Sisters in the congregation. Her education of the children were the most important aspects of her life even when lying on her deathbed. When asked if there was anything she wanted seen to after she died, Nano Nagle replied “Only one thing, take care of the schools” (Nano Nagle.n.d).

In the early years after her death, there seemed to be little hope that Nano’s congregation would survive. Some twenty years later after her death, Pope Pius VII set the final solemn seal of the Church’s approval on the new congregation, to be known as the Congregation of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The growth of the Congregation was small but steady. Nano Nagle was declared Venerable on 31 October 2013. These days the world is filled with poverty, sickness and greed so we need to remember the work of Nano Nagle to solve these problems and find the courage like she did to stand up and do what is right.

The work of Nano Nagle in the education of women and the poor predates the "Rerum Novarum", written by Pope Leo Xiii In May 1891. It was about the rights and duties of Capital and Labour during the industrial revolution when individuals and groups of society were working to reform the inequities in the workforce. Nano Nagle's work reflects section 3 and 4, the common good and the protection of the poor. She risked her life to support the poor Catholics to change the ways of society to make it fair for everyone. She lived her life through the values of compassion and selflessness to help provide education for Irish children even though it was against the law during the period of history.

Penal laws were forced by the British. Its objective was to reduce the Catholics in Ireland. The Penal Laws limited the economic and political rights as well as strictly forbidding the practice of the Catholic faith the education of Catholic children in school. The laws brought disease and starvation to the people. It is estimated that 20% of the population died because of the Great Frost of 1737—1741 as they couldn't afford shelter due to the unemployment.
