Francis has significantly increased the number of women in high-ranking positions in the Vatican and said the same should occur in local churches, including by changing canon law to do so.
Pope Francis’ big gathering of Catholic bishops and laypeople said Saturday it was “urgent” to guarantee fuller participation of women in church governance positions and called for research on allowing women to be deacons to be released within a year.After a month of closed-door debate, Francis’ meeting on the future of the Catholic Church ended late Saturday with the approval of a 42-page text on a host of issues that will now be considered at a second session next year.
In that proposal, the delegates called for theological and pastoral research to continue about allowing women to be deacons, and called for the results of the two study groups Francis has commissioned to be released before the second session of the synod opens in October 2024.
