Support the Sisters: Future Church's List of Practical Ways You Can Help


Support the Sisters!
Dear FutureChurch Friends


Thanks to you, there are now over 40,000 signatures on a coalition petition supporting US sisters after an unprecedented Vatican mandate sought to undermine their integrity and right to freely discern how to live the Gospel.

Our coalition, the Nun Justice Project, has established a website, nunjustice.org, and identified Six Things You Can Do to Support the Sisters.

We especially encourage you to:

Record a financial pledge to support your local religious order

Write the Apostolic Nuncio (download sample letters and addresses)



Pray now and during Pentecost week (download a sample prayer service.)

Follow Nun Justice on Tumblr

The Leadership Conference of Women Religious (LCWR) represents eighty percent of the 57,000 sisters in the United States. Their board will meet May 29-June 2 (Pentecost week) to consider a response to the Vatican's action.

FutureChurch is coordinating our advocacy with others in the church reform community.

Please pray for LCWR leaders and for all women religious who are deeply wounded by this latest action.

Thanks for taking action to support the sisters!

Chris Schenk csj, and the board and staff of FutureChurch
