Pope: In Troubled Times, Seek the Soft Breath of Grace
There’s no doubt that the last election left many Christians dispirited, wondering how a nation in such a steep downward spiral can be saved; however, as Pope Benedict XVI reminds us, the salvation of the world isn’t the work of man or science or technology – but of grace alone. And in this truth, let us all take heart!
Welcome!
Dear Friends,
It is with great joy and zeal that Women of Grace® presents its new groundbreaking website (www.womenofgrace.com) to the women of the world today, on the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary. We hope that you will help us to share the good news about this exciting new extension of the Women of Grace® apostolate.
The new website uses various aspects of electronic communications to complement our mission to transform the world, one woman at a time, by affirming women in their dignity and vocation as daughters of God and in their gift of authentic femininity. Through on-line video and audio presentations, podcasts, document libraries, blogs, and dozens of other resources, Catholic women will find the information and the inspiration they need to live out their feminine genius in their marriages and families, professions and careers, and in the world at large.
One of the most exciting features of this groundbreaking new website is GracePlace, a social communications network that unites women from around the world in a virtual community setting. Women of Grace® is one of the first Catholic women’s outreach to use this high-powered social network platform. It marks a significant moment in the history of the apostolate and its ability to achieve its mission.
In GracePlace, women can network with other sisters in Christ as near as their own parish communities or with women who live half a world away. Discussion groups, a shared resources library, leadership development, training tips, and events calendars provide just a glimpse of how faithful daughters of the Church can come together for encouragement, inspiration, instruction, information, and restoration. Simply stated, we are confident that all Catholic women will find a home at GracePlace.
Updated daily, there is always something new at the Women of Grace website. I hope you will visit us often!
I faithfully remain, your sister in Christ,
Johnnette Benkovic
