The Pope on women leaders in the Church

10 October 2020

The Pope wants women to have more leadership in the Church, but he restricts this to ‘lay’ functions such as administration, pastoral care. It is totally inadequate. When Jesus gave leadership to his Apostles, he gave spiritual power: to proclaim the message, baptise, forgive sins, preside at the Eucharist. Moreover, Church Law gives all real decision-making authority to ordained ministers.
