Society of St Agnes For Catholic Women In Ministry
We are a Christ-centered community of women and men. We provide a forum for women of all ages to discover and experience in a deeper sense, the heart and mind of Jesus Christ through revealing the Word of God. We strive to transfer this into the relevance of faithful discipleship in today's changing and rather complicated world. So many women have a burning heart to reach out to all who need them and express gospel concern - but feel they are thwarted by the patriarchial dominance of the Church. Please don't mistake us for a radical anti-male group, we do not exclude the men in our lives and never will - you will see them throughout our website and in our ministerial lives in total support of us.
Here is a wonderfully insightful and so wise a comment from one of the Ordained Roman Catholic Women Priests (RCWP) we have friendship and respect with and for:
"I believe it is very important that we are both here together in our different situations with our different viewpoints. This could be helpful to both of us. I have a theory that the campaign for the ordination of women to the (Roman) Catholic priesthood needs women with as wide a variety of talents and knowledge as possible, because the Vatican opposes us in so many different ways! That we are doing different types of ministry, at least at present, does not matter, for that could change in time anyway."
