Over sixty people - including journalists from France, Spain , Germany, Austria, Italy and the United States witnessed a holy shakeup minutes from the Vatican! Bishop Bridget Mary Meehan ARCWP ordained three priests: Belen Repiso Carrillo from Spain, and Anne Malloy La Tour and Mary Katherine Daniels from the United States and three deacons Loan Rocher from France, and Maria Teresa Ribeiro Rosa and Txus Garcia Pascual from Spain on the Dram, a boat, anchored on the Tiber River. Like Jesus who called his first disciples to get out of their fishing boat to follow him in proclaiming the all- embracing love of God for everyone , Catholic women and persons from marginalized genders are following the call of Jesus today to serve renewed communities of faith anchored in inclusivity, and equality. We came to Rome to offer hope to Catholics around the globe that women priests and deacons are here now. We minister inclusive communities where all are welcome to receive and celebrate sacraments. We ask Pope Francis to engage in a “conversation in the Spirit” and to remove all barriers that excommunicate those who answer the Spirit’s call to ordination. Then his words “todus, todus” will become a reality because they will apply to all who follow their consciences and disobey Church teachings, including women priests!
