“Progress is possible, not guaranteed. It will only be made if we keep marching…”
— from the Broadway musical Suffs
The Church is in a historic moment.
Across the globe, Catholics are actively discerning the role of women in the diaconate — and your voice matters. Where does Pope Leo stand on women’s leadership? What has been recently shared by the Vatican about the path forward for women? How can ordinary Catholics participate in shaping this synodal chapter of our Church?
Join us for a lively, hope-filled, and interactive conversation about women deacons in the universal Church.
You will:
- Discover surprising insights about the history and charism of the diaconate
- Learn how Discerning Deacons is engaging Catholics worldwide and bringing their voices to the Vatican
- Find practical ways you can contribute to the Church’s discernment
This is not just a presentation. It’s an invitation. The Spirit is moving. Let’s keep marching!
