Church Women

Church Women: Probing History with Girls outlines strategies for discovering the richness of women's contributions to the life of the Church. Some of the women featured in this manual lived centuries ago, like Hildegard of Bingen and Julian of Norwich. Some are heroines of recent times, like Sr. Helen Prejean, several martyred women of El Salvador, and a young woman from Iowa named Carrie Mach. All have one thing in common: they changed their world because of their faith, courage, conviction, and action.
