On Thanksgiving Day, let us give thanks for abundant blessings especially the Roman Catholic Women Priests who are serving inclusive Catholic communities where all are welcome at God's table of extravagant love for all


"I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all
of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel

ARCWP Priestly Ordination of Diane Dougherty in Atlanta on Oct. 20, 2012, Metropolitan Community Church
from the first day until now, being confident of this, that God
who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the
day of Christ Jesus." Philippians 1:3-6

On this day of thanksgiving for our blessings, we give thanks for all those who are working for justice and peace around the world including women's ordination in the Catholic Church.

We give thanks for family, friends and  our Roman Catholic Women Priests Movement. We give thanks for a renewed inclusive Christ-centered, justice seeking Catholic Church that is emerging in more and more places in Europe,  the United States, Canada, and Latin America.

We give thanks for prophets like Roy Bourgeois, and the hundreds of priests, like Jesuit Bill Brennan, who are standing up publically for the full equality of women, including women priests, in the Roman Catholic Church.
