St. Bridget of Kildare Parish
Seattle, WA
March 27, 2024

Here at St. Bridget of Kildare Parish in Seattle, Washington we uplifted the ministry of women at all Masses on the weekend of September 8-9, 2023. The Masses over the weekend were exclusively served by female altar servers (including some new ones!) and at each Mass a female member of our Parish Council offered a reflection following the gospel. Together we prayed the prayer of St. Phoebe and asked her to intercede on our behalf in this journey.

As a parish, we know the blessing of the many ministries and gifts that women in our parish share with all of us. Celebrating Mass this weekend to honor the witness of St. Phoebe focused attention on women’s gifts for leadership in our parish and the Church more broadly. We are proud to be a part of the conversation and discernment for women’s ordination to the diaconate.

St. Phoebe, pray for us! We will continue celebrating and uplifting her witness.

“I have always felt like God equips us with the gifts we need along our journey as we need. This has certainly been true throughout my life, which I am so deeply grateful for. I always say, it’s not me, it has to be God!”

“A highlight for many present was the Scripture reflection offered by a female parishioner who specifically spoke about her experience as a minister in the Church. At St. William, communal leadership and ministry are a central part of our community’s identity and values.”
