"This week was one of respite, rejuvenation, rigor, and relaxation. I pray that we can all pause and receive the outpouring of graces that were not just showered, but poured down upon us, by Our Lady through the instrument of the Benedicta Institute, and all those who helped make this week possible." -Melissa H
The Benedicta Institute for Women is an outreach of Women of Grace® which seeks to train and equip Catholic women to be active leaders and mentors of the day in accord with their state in life. Learn more about our upcoming summer course and fall immersive here!
The purpose of Certification in Catholic Women’s Leadership through the Benedicta Institute for Women® is found in the Institute’s motto, agere sequitur esse (doing follows being). The woman who receives the Certification in Catholic Women’s Leadership will be formed and shaped according to the heart and mind of Holy Mother Church in the fullness of the Feminine Genius, the Blessed Virgin Mary. Through the spiritual and leadership formation provided, she will be imbued with the Marian character, confidence, and skill to bring Jesus Christ to the world and the world to Jesus Christ, no matter her position or state in life. In so doing, she will do much to “aid humanity in not falling” and to create a civilization of love.
