Women, Service, and the Catholic Church’s Future

The Church is in a historic moment. We have new church teaching on women to receive and implement! Across the globe, Catholics are actively discerning about women’s access to diaconal ministry—and your voice matters. Where does Pope Leo stand on women’s leadership? What has the Vatican recently shared
about the path forward for women? How can ordinary Catholics participate in shaping this synodal chapter of our Church? Join us for a lively, hope-filled, and interactive conversation about women deacons in the universal Church. You will:

• Discover surprising insights about the history and charism of the diaconate

• Learn how Discerning Deacons is engaging Catholics worldwide and bringing their voices to the Vatican

• Find practical ways you can contribute to the Church’s discernment.

This is not just a presentation—it’s an invitation. The Spirit is moving. Let’s journey together. Facilitated by: Sister Michelle Cimaroli, aci Director of St. Raphaela Center – Haverford, PA
