Hundreds of Roman Catholic priests from all over the world are challenging the Vatican to rethink all-male celibate priesthood and ordain women priests. In the United States, 157 Roman Catholic priests signed a statement in support Roy Bourgeois, a member of the Maryknoll religious order and priest who faces dismissal for taking part in a ceremony that purported to ordain Janice Sevre-Duszynskaas. ... Sevre-Duszynska, now a member of the Roman Catholic Women Priests, began her journey to priesthood in 1998. She gained media attention over the years for "disrupting" services and conferences calling for ordination of women priests. In 2008, Bourgeois delivered the homily ordaining her a "womanpriest." ...In June, 300 Austrian priests and deacons issued a "Call to Disobedience" to promote priesthood for both married men and women. The Austrian priests and deacons read aloud a public prayer for "church reform" in every Mass. "
Bridget Mary's Reflection:
Three years ago, Maryknoll priest Roy Bourgeois crossed the line by participating at Janice Sevre-Duszynska's ordination in Lexington Kentucky. Now his fellow priests are coming on board in a growing wave of enthusiasm for women priests in the Catholic Church. Bridget Mary Meehan, Association of Roman Catholic Women Priests
