Feminine Genius Brunch
The Respect Life Office of the Archdiocese of New York has been sponsoring Feminine Genius Brunch. In your own parish you can plan such event and give the ladies the opportunity to enjoy a beautiful morning with the Sisters of Life so you can marvel at the mystery of God in creating us and his plan for each one of us.
Please note that you will need to contact us or the Sisters of Life to plan such event at least 6 months before the intended date.
"...women has a genius all her own, which is vitally essential to both society and the Church" Pope John Paul II- Angelus July 23 1995
In 1995, Pope John Paul II wrote a Letter to Women, which emphasized the important role women play in society and the Church. The Pope spoke of the distinct attributes of women—receptivity, sensitivity, generosity, and maternity—all of which make up the feminine genius.
This brunch borrows its name after those amazing God-given attributes endowed to you as women! Why? Because it is our hope that the talks and experience of this brunch will reveal to you your amazing gifts as women and open your heart to the Holy Spirit who longs to spark these gifts to life!
