When Women Rise The Community Shines
Catholic women’s ministry in today’s church is vital to the mission and ministry of Jesus Christ. When we, as Church, provide safe and non-judgmental spaces for women to share their stories, create avenues to serve others within our communities, encourage a moral stand on social justice issues and provide spiritual growth opportunities, we will reap life-giving results not only for women but for our families, parishes, and communities. And within strong families, strong vocations are borne.
The Diocese of Jefferson City has launched a diocesan-wide Women’s Ministry to help us mentor, support and teach each other how to live a Spirit-filled life, one that God is calling us to live.
Ladies, we are in a season of opportunity. May we bring forth our finest gifts and share in the bounty of this blessing. Join me in praying our ministry provides a fertile ground in which deep roots of mercy, compassion and service strengthens us and feeds the needs of those around us. Please also consider completing this brief survey to help us learn what a strong, supportive women’s ministry means to you.
