I share with you today a poem by Mary Ellen, one of my sister priests in the Roman Catholic Womenpriests, Great Waters Region.
Advent Women
Women preparing,
wonder on the way,
willing spirits,
Gathering women
greeting each other,
giving and preaching life,
grasping wisdom here now.
Jesus bearing women,
journeying in each birth,
justly preparing the road,
jewels to witness creation.
Spirit led women
surprising new lights,
seen by many,
successfully moving on.
