[edit] Wo sie begraben liegt
Das könnte man noch erwähnen, [1], "im Kloster der Canossianerinnen in Schio. Die hl. Sr. Giuseppina Bakhita ruht in einem Glasschrein unter dem Altar."

[2] see pages 2 and 3; it is said that she has been ordered to write a biography what she did. Until now I couldn't find the title of her autobiography.

- "In 1902 she was assigned to a Canossian convent near Padua, where the superior asked the young sister to write about her life in Africa, which she did in a 30-page memoir in Italian."
- "In 1935 she made a tour of Canossian convents telling her life story, despite her own reluctance and shyness."
- "When we honor Josephine Bakhita, we ought to do so not with any spirit of sentimentality but with a vigorous sense of outrage at those who rob children and adults of their dignity, their freedom and their physical and spiritual integrity. We honor Josephine Bakhita not as a humble nun (which she surely was) but as an emblematic figure who stands for all who are enslaved."
