"LCWR Begins Reexamination of Religious Life"/ Time for Nuns to Be Priests Publically

http://ncronline.org/
by Monica Clark
"Religious life for the majority of U.S. sisters is at a crossroads. An aging membership and a decline in new vocations have communities probing what to do next to sustain their ministries and their way of life. These women sense a new era is emerging and they have decided to embark together on a new way of discerning that future.
When more than 600 sisters gather in Southern California Aug. 9-12 for the annual assembly of the Leadership Conference of Women Religious, they will set aside discussions on strategic planning and talks about mergers and consolidations. ..Instead, these leaders of the 334 congregations in the Leadership Conference will sit together in silence, discovering what God is calling forth for religious life today. They will have no expectation of a particular insight or result. Rather, they will spend time in collective contemplation to explore where religious life in the United States may be moving."


Bridget Mary's Reflection:

"Time for Nuns to be Priests Publically"

May Spirit Sophia lead and guide you into your future!

It is time for nuns to be priests publically. You have been doing it for decades!

The full equality of women is the voice of God speaking in our time.

Sisters, we are ready for you !The Association of Roman Catholic Women Priests invite you to walk on water with us!
