Support continues for the national board of the Leadership Conference of Women Religious (LCWR) as they meet to discuss the conclusions of the Congregation of the Faith’s doctrinal assessment. In an interview with Paul Wagner of WICU TV News, Erie Benedictine Sister Joan Chittister, a former president of LCWR, was asked to share some of her insights regarding this matter.

With the Gospel as our guide, we, the Benedictine Sisters of Erie continue to “run on the path of God’s commandments” (Rule of Benedict, Prologue), embracing our Corporate Commitment with compassion and care.
