Released in March 2024, Women Called to Catholic Priesthood: From Ecclesial Challenge to Spiritual Renewal is the result of many years of research and interviews conducted by co-authors Professor Emerita Sharon Callahan, PhD, and Professor and ICTC Executive Director Jeanette Rodriguez, PhD.

The authors explore the contexts, calls, journeys, spirituality and theology of women called to priesthood in the Roman Catholic Church in this compelling and carefully crafted ethnographic work.

Under the direction of the honorable Pat Howell, S.J., ICTC funded the initial research through a faculty research grant in 2019. Join in celebrating their dedicated work and learn more about the process of writing this book.
