May 1, 2024

At our parish, St. John the Evangelist Roman Catholic Church in Columbia, MD, we honored St. Phoebe at our Sunday Mass on September 3, 2023. Before Mass, we handed out literature and prayer cards, and during Mass our priest celebrant gave an introduction to St. Phoebe at both the beginning and the end of the Mass. So many older adults from our congregation, both men and women, were thrilled to hear of this discernment and of the witness of St. Phoebe. The response from our community most definitely helped us to realize and remember that we are not alone on this journey of uplifting women in the Church!

“We are happy to be able to share about women in the Church who lead and are heard, especially for the youngest amongst us who need to hear this message.”

“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.”
