Pope Francis Notes Press Coverage on Expectations of Ordination of Women Priests

Kate McAlwee writes:

At the Oct. 4 opening session of the hotly anticipated Vatican summit on the future of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis said he had taken note of some of the press coverage about the "global expectations" for the assembly.

The example he gave to the some 460 delegates at the October 2023 Synod of Bishops? That the synod might decide to ordain women as priests!


Perhaps he saw the 12 meter-long "purple tent" we opened just before the synod began? Or maybe he got wind of our prayer vigil at the Basilica of St. Praxedes on the eve of the synod, championing the voices of women around the world?

Bridget Mary writes: 

Maybe by now Pope Francis  has heard of Christina Moreira ARCWP  who -dressed in her priestly alb and stole-was in St. Peter’s Square blessing and ministering to pilgrims on Friday October 5th before her arrest by Italian police who confiscated her liturgical attire before her release!
