SIGN UP FOR DAILY MESSAGE FROM POPE FRANCIS (https://info.missio.org/e2t/sc2/MmZ-8ykJrGpW8qXr857GPNFCW8YyVq991l4mcW4nZThX5mrmvgdBzP8P04 )

WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 14, 2020

“We pray that by the virtue of baptism, the laity, especially women, may participate more in areas of responsibility in the Church.  No one has been baptized a priest or a bishop. We have all been baptized as lay people.  Lay people are protagonists of the Church.  Today, it is especially necessary to create broader opportunities for a more incisive female presence in the Church.  And we must emphasize the feminine lay presence because women tend to be left aside.  We must promote the integration of women, especially where important decisions are made.  We pray that by the virtue of baptism, the laity, especially women, may participate more in areas of responsibility in the Church, without falling into forms of clericalism that diminish the lay charism.”

Pope Francis

NUNS: We have very few dedicated nuns and their loyal helpers at present, their numbers were depleting over many years. Our present methods of dealing with Covid 19, many are wondering are the blind leading the blind. What would give confidence to people are a core of dedicated Christians, who would care for the sick, expecting nothing, but doing it as a Christian duty.
