About Us
Roman Catholic Women Priests Canada is part an International Movement within the Roman Catholic Church working towards a new model of ordained ministry in a renewed Roman Catholic Church.
The mission of Roman Catholic Women Priests (RCWP) is to prepare, ordain in Apostolic Succession, and support primarily women who are called by the Holy Spirit and their communities to a renewed priestly ministry rooted in justice and faithfulness to the Gospel.
Roman Catholic Women Priests Canada adheres to the following values: equality, justice, accountability, collegiality, and prophetic obedience.
Today, RCWP Canada has ordained priests in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario, and Quebec. Associates, non-ordained persons who are full members of RCWP Canada, are located in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Ontario. All members of RCWP Canada assist in the work of preparing, supporting, and ordaining those who are called by the Holy Spirit and their local communities to a new model of Roman Catholic priesthood and Christian community.
