Join us for an inspiring evening with historian and author Dr. Bronwen McShea, Ph.D., whose acclaimed works include 'Women of the Church: What Every Catholic Should Know'.
Drawing on years of research at institutions like Columbia, Princeton, and Loyola Chicago, Dr. McShea reveals how countless women—lay and religious—played pivotal leadership roles throughout Catholic history. She’ll introduce remarkable, often-forgotten women who shaped the Church in their time, and explore how remembering them can reshape our understanding today. This thought-provoking lecture offers not only a richer view of the past, but also a renewed vision for what is possible in the future.
We will have a limited number of copies of Dr. McShea's book mentioned above.
Light refreshments to be provided.
