Over the long history of the Church, thirty-seven saints have been named “Doctors of the Church because of their significant contributions to theology through their research, study, and writing.  Of these, only four have been women: Hildegard of Bingen, Catherine of Siena, Teresa of Ávila, and Thérèse of Lisieux.  During our time together, we will look at the lives of these women, their contributions to Catholic thought, as well as the insights they offer us as we live our faith today. In addition to input, there will be time for personal prayer and reflection, lively conversation, and a lunch from Panera Bakery. The day will end with the celebration of the Eucharist. The registration deadline is Monday, March 17, 2025.
