The sensus fidelium--or the sense of the faithful--is an important way in which the Church discerns the will of God. If the Holy Spirit is active in all creation, then where people stand on a particular issue reveals in some way God's desires for the world if that position supports God's vision of love and justice for creation. (For example, a position that is widely held in a society that advocates for the enslavement of a particular people cannot come from God because it violates God's vision of salvation.) It is undeniable that both in and beyond the Church, humanity has been awakening to the fundamental truth of women's equality. This campaign works to reveal the sensus fidelium within the laity, within the ranks of ordained and vowed religious, and within the human family beyond the Roman Catholic Church. |
Invest in the momentThe only way I can be devoted to this work full-time is with your prayer and financial investment. Every investment:
1. You help me put food on the table.
Literally. As an excommunicated priest, I receive no institutional support. I cannot seek funding from Catholic foundations, and secular foundations are not interested in religious projects. Your investment allows me to devote the entirety of my time and resources to the people of God and to working for this change at this very important moment of the Synod in the Church. I live in a tiny, rundown apartment, I drive a 25 year old car without AC, I eat simply, I am on Medicaid (which does not offer decent vision coverage) and I have no dental insurance. Any "extra" money I have goes to provide end-of-life care for senior dogs. This is not to say I am not grateful, for I feel like the most blessed person in the world to walk this path! Rather, this is to be transparent that I am not acquiring wealth from this work. The only way I can be single-hearted is through your support. 2. You support my reform work. Phase One: $50,000 | #FatherAnneInTheVan
Phase Two: $250,000
Crucial to the reform work is simply being a female Roman Catholic priest so that people and the institutional Church can encounter this reality. Your generosity supports Masses, confession, anointings of the sick, last rites, adoration of the blessed sacrament, pastoral care. Your generosity also supports an avid prayer ministry as well as hospice care for senior dogs. Let us embrace this moment of transfiguration. GOD SAYS NOW |
