Many times in the history of Christianity,
religious sisters stood at the frontiers of
change. As prophets and pioneers, atuned to the
movements of the Holy Spirit, they have
discovered new horizons of our Voices Of Faith in
changing times.
In October 2019 another Synod of Bishops will
gather in Rome to discern the future of the
Catholic Church in Amazonia. Yet women religious
who outnumber brothers almost 10 to 1 globally
and whose female superiors have the same
canonical status as brother superiors, do not
have the right to vote at these Synods. This must
change if we want to see equality in the
leadership of our Church.
