"’Im so grateful to have had the opportunity to attend the Immersive seminar. I understand and appreciate the amount of work that goes into planning such an event, and your attention to detail, organization, and timing were excellent. Your kind attention to specific requests was thoughtful, too.
It was such a privilege to be surrounded by so many people of God throughout the week. It was such a gift to have Bishop Waltersheid with us all week—I feel so fortunate to have had an opportunity to learn from his evening sessions and from every prayer session and Mass, and to be able to share meals with him.
I’m so grateful to have had Dr. Wallenfang as our instructor all week. He is so brilliant and at the same time so willing to share his knowledge in a friendly, supportive manner. And his sense of humor is wonderful.
And I’m happy that Johnnette created this Institute, and Women of Grace, and all of the wonderful things she’s done to help nurture Catholic women’s education. Though I’m just beginning my education, I feel like I have gotten off to a wonderful start."

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.
