Often in the public discourse, we lose the essence of what our faith teaches us beyond the black and white understandings on different issues. I want to help reshape conversations to bring focus to root issues in hopes of finding solutions. This may mean focusing on what causes a woman to walk through the doors seeking an abortion, what it means to be a woman in light of the gospel or why people seek to immigrate at great risks. To do this (1) I will work with others involved in the work that addresses dehumanization, (2) continue my education on this topic, (3) actively work on adult formation programs in my parish targeting this topic, (4) work on the theology of the feminine genius and (5) be faithful to God’s call.
