Questions from a Ewe

"Test everything; retain what is good.” (1 Thes 5:21) A laywoman expresses concerns about issues in the Roman Catholic Church to foster positive dialogue by posing and exploring questions. Please remember that Canon Law says it is not only a right but a duty to question the church. Also, Canon Law provides an over-riding power to the sensus fidelium (sense of the faithful). By this, Canon Law says that if the sensus fidelium (collective of the faithful) reject a law, it is not valid.

Saudi Arabia 20, Vatican 0

Dear Pope Francis,

This will be short and sweet. Saudi Arabia just elected 20 women, which is 20 more than ever in the Catholic Church. So, I find myself in a position asking you and your brotherhood to consider learning something from the Saudis on sharing power with women.

Hope you are having a transformative Advent.

Love and prayers as always,

The Ewe

Jesus offered us resurrection. He, too, is waiting for the transformation.
