Mujeres de la Iglesia: llenas del Espíritu, dinámicas e inspiradoras

Al personal de Discerning Deacons nos dio gusto participar en la reciente conferencia nacional de Mujeres de la Iglesia national conference in Collegeville, MN. We are grateful to conference organizers Meg Payne Nelson, Kelley Deshler, Donelle Poling, and Angela Dimler who worked behind the scenes for over a year to prepare a Spirit-filled, lively, and inspiring event.

Heidi Schlumpf, editora ejecutiva de National Catholic Reporter (NCR), cubrió la histórica reunión en su reciente artículo "Joy and hope amid struggle at Women of the Church event"(Alegría y esperanza en medio de la lucha en el evento Mujeres de la Iglesia-en inglés). Destacó a las oradoras principales, Dra. Kristin Colberg, Gloria Purvis y Casey Stanton. Creemos que Heidi lo dijo mejor cuando escribió: "Discerning Deacons, un grupo que promueve la renovación del diaconado para las mujeres, tuvo una fuerte presencia».

Por lo tanto, queremos saludar a todos los Discerning Deacons y amigos de todo el país que viajaron para dar testimonio del camino sinodal que estamos recorriendo juntos: Bridget Deegan Krause, Kelly Adamson, Christine Delp, Katie Dorner, Jane Egan, Anne Garrido, Jazmin Jimenez, Sarah Probst Miller, Carmen Ramos, P. Jim Radde, SJ, P. Steve Newton, P. Michael Hickin, y por supuesto el círculo de DD de Minnesota - Lisa Amman, Anne Attea, Jane Leyden Cavanaugh, Mary Lamski, Cynthia Bailey Manns, Rhonda Miska, Catalina Morales, y la Hna. Carolyn Puccio.

Fue un regalo compartir la mesa y conversar en persona en la hermosa Universidad de St. John's – ¡Un testimonio vivo para una iglesia sinodal!

Durante la conferencia, NCR también publicó un artículo que escribí sobre un reciente viaje que Casey y yo hicimos a la región amazónica de Brasil para ser testigos de mujeres comprometidas en el ministerio diaconal profético (en inglés)..

Nos complace además anunciar que más de 100 parroquias, escuelas y centros de retiro han inscrito sus celebraciones del Día de Santa Febe en septiembre. Si aún no has inscrito la tuya, sigue este enlace.

“For many years, I had the privilege of leading Communion services in nursing homes and assisted living facilities. In the beginning, I did this with great trepidation, but by the time my ministry ended, I was thoroughly convinced that the Holy Spirit can fill the hearts, souls and minds of faith-filled women every bit as much as those of men.”

“I have been blessed with women who have shared their many gifts with me. They have broken open Scripture for the people of God with their own perspective and insight. They have shown ways of leading which empower and confirm the value of each individual person. They have offered perspectives and visions of the Spirit’s call to live God’s love for all.”

“If I could be ordained a deacon, the people would hear the Good News preached with authority at the pulpit and in the world. For me personally, it would feel like the ability to serve in the manner in which God has put on my heart to serve. As a minister of the word, liturgy and charity, I would preach the word to inspire others to love God and their neighbor. I would continue to bring communion to the sick and imprisoned, but I would also free our priests by taking on some baptisms, weddings, and funeral services that are outside of the Mass. It would feel like the fullness of what I was meant to do.”
