Women's Ordination Worldwide (WOW)
Support Our Work
Working for women's equality and ordination in the Catholic Church: 'There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is no longer slave or free, there is no longer male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus'. Galatians 3.28
Please consider making a solidarity gift to strengthen our efforts as Women’s Ordination Worldwide returns to Rome for the second global assembly of the synod in October 2024.
Despite the efforts of the institutional church to say that now is NOT the time to discuss women’s ministries, we will be present and louder than ever to say that the time for equality in action is now.
Our witness is essential to ensure women’s voices, experiences, stories, and vocations are not erased or silenced in the synodal process. We work for accountability to the grassroots, and are an uncompromising voice for equitable inclusion of women at every level of our church. Through the link below, various opportunities for giving show how you can help.
