In October 2019 another Bishops' Synod will assemble in Rome to recognize the fate of the Catholic Church in Amazonia. However ladies religious who dwarf brother very nearly 10 to 1 comprehensively and whose female bosses have a similar authoritative status as brother bosses, don't reserve the option to cast a ballot at these Synods of Bishops. This must change on the off chance that we need to see fairness in the authority of our Church. Visit here to know more details:- https://voicesoffaith.org/os-october-2019-event

Voices Of Faith Synod Of Bishops Thursday 3rd October 2019 AT Biblioteca Vallicelliana, Piazza della Chiesa Nuova, Rome VOF
Many times in the history of Christianity, religious sisters stood at the frontiers of change. As prophets and pioneers, atuned to the movements of the Holy Spirit, they have discovered new horizons of our Voices Of Faith in changing times. In October 2019 another Synod of Bishops will gather in Rome to discern the future of the Catholic Church in Amazonia. Yet women religious who outnumber brothers almost 10 to 1 globally and whose female superiors have the same canonical status as brother superiors, do not have the right to vote at these Synods. This must change if we want to see equality in the leadership of our Church. VOF
