Creating Spaces for Women in the Catholic Church presents the
struggle of theologically educated lay women with the Catholic
Church. The author, a Catholic sister, shares the same struggle but
enjoys an incredible network of communal, ministerial, financial,
and spiritual support that helps her negotiate the painful
experiences in the Church. Lay women lack this support. Yet, lay
women valiantly carve out spaces for themselves within the church,
though these spaces tend to be small-scale, localized, and
temporary. If they move to a new place, they often lose the support
they have built for themselves. The contributors study alongside
male seminarians, serve as hospital chaplains when Catholics always
want a priest, prepare queer liturgies to create space for all of
God's people, and create a progressive, Chicana domestic church
while raising children. They push beyond the spaces allotted to
them. The final chapter, "Giving Voice and Creating Space,"
explores potential pathways forward for collaboration between
sisters and lay women to create a stronger network support for lay
women. This book inspires conversation between sisters and lay
women so that the vast resources of women religious may be more
intentionally shared with lay women. â€
