Catholic Sisters Week

Catholic Sisters Week (CSW) invites all to celebrate women religious from March 8-14. CSW is an annual celebration that began in 2014 to honor women religious with a series of events that instruct, enlighten, and bring greater focus on the lives of these incredible women. It’s a chance to recognize all that they do, with the hope that as more young women learn about women religious, more will choose to follow their example.

Visit the CSW website to learn about the organization, find an event near you and join in honoring women religious, or plan an event of your own and spread the word. You can post your event for others to see here. 

Additional Resources can be found through Global Sisters Report Resources, Communicators for Women Religious, and A Nun's Life Ministry . Check out this great video from the Pope's February prayer intention for inspiration. 

NRVC has published 77 videos centered on the theme of Abundant Hope. All the videos can be accessed directly through the National Religious Vocation Conference YouTube Channel and shared publicly to amplify hope for religious life. One idea is to share one video a day on your social media platforms throughout Catholic Sisters Week, show one a day in classrooms, on campuses, at Board meetings, and parish events. The NRVC partnered with Franciscan Media, SOAR! and the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation to produce the videos.
