“The inclusion of women in ordained ministry is imperative for the future of the Catholic Church. Restoring women to the diaconate is a step that will enhance the life of the Church and demonstrate, particularly to young people, that Catholicism truly recognizes that both male and female are created in the image of God and called to ordained ministry.”
Anne Hansen is the executive director of Ignatians West.

“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.”
