Who makes Catholic Sisters Week happen?
There is a role for everyone in Catholic Sisters Week! We encourage women religious communities and congregations and those connected with them:
- associates, oblates, third orders, agrégées
- donors, benefactors, and other collaborators
- friends and family members
- parishioners, clients, students, and alumnae
- Nuns & Nones groups, spirituality seekers
- and anyone who longs to be light, build community and love fearlessly
Join us March 8-14. Plan an event or campaign (on site or online) or attend an in-person event in your area or a virtual event anywhere! You can also join Catholic Sisters Week social media campaign: Let sisters know how they have impacted you by sharing a shout-out picture, sign, or video.
