Theology rooted in patriarchy delays restoration of female diaconate
Article from CWS member Christine Schenk, originally published on the National Catholic Reporter 14th May 2019 Overall I was more encouraged than discouraged by Pope Francis's May 10 discussion about women deacons at the triennial meeting of the Union of International Superiors General. I was pleasantly surprised that the pope was considering a "sacramental decree" about the issue.
