Catholic Women Speak Symposium
March 16th, 2024
Join Fordham University Campus Ministry at the Rose Hill Campus
Saturday, March 16th from 11:00 am-6:30 pm.
Spend the day grounded in intentional community with fellow Catholic women as we affirm, empower, and rejoice in our voices within the Church. This event is inspired both by the Global Synod’s discernment of the role of women in the Church and the desire to lift up Catholic women in our community who live a variety of vocations.
We are hopeful that you will be able to join us for this eventful day of celebration, listening, sharing, and relationship building. We ask that each individual who plans to attend fills out this google form (also linked below) before March 11th. If you cannot attend in person, there will be an opportunity to attend the keynote sessions via zoom. Please indicate this on the registration form.
Note: While Catholic Women Speak Symposium (11am-5:15pm) is intentionally for women, Mass (5:30pm) is welcome to all!
