Information from the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB)
"In every age, Mary's maternal care is an expression of God's providence, his plan of love for history and for every soul. And in the troubles of this present moment, we need to entrust ourselves even more to her care."
- Archbishop José H. Gomez |
"We need to participate for the common good. Sometimes we hear: a good Catholic is not interested in politics. This is not true: good Catholics immerse themselves in politics by offering the best of themselves so that the leader can govern." - Pope Francis, 9/16/13

Women in leadership roles in the Church – The Pope Video 10 - October 2020

We pray that by the virtue of baptism, the laity, especially women, may participate more in areas of responsibility in the Church, without falling into forms of clericalism that diminish the lay charism.
Pope Francis – October 2020 No one has been baptized a priest or a bishop. We have all been baptized as lay people. Lay people are protagonists of the Church. Today, it is especially necessary to create broader opportunities for a more incisive female presence in the Church. And we must emphasize the feminine lay presence because women tend to be left aside. We must promote the integration of women, especially where important decisions are made. We pray that by the virtue of baptism, the laity, especially women, may participate more in areas of responsibility in the Church, without falling into forms of clericalism that diminish the lay charism. |
