The Evolution and Revolution of Feminist Ministry: A U.S. Catholic Perspective

Abstract

Catholic feminist women in the United States engage in a wide variety of ministries. They are in good company with women from other faiths who are pushing beyond the structures and givens of their traditions to create new forms of spiritual and religious expression adequate to the needs of postmodern people. The author reflects appreciatively on these efforts, with special attention to how the work done in the public arena is changing the face of America’s largest religious community.
