Rezension zu „Conscience and Calling: Ethical Reflections on Catholic Women's Church Vocations “
Conscience and Calling is a beautifully written and powerful tribute to the courage and dedication of women religious. In a volume filled with penetrating insight into the present situation in the Catholic Church, Patrick describes how religious women have both worked and struggled with church authorities but have emerged with their consciences and vocations intact and renewed. This book opens up a history that needs to be known and celebrated while offering its readers a moral framework for understanding what it means for all of us to answer our callings. -- Susan A. Ross, Loyola University, Chicago, USA
