Out of Silence God Has Called Me is a must read for all women religious, leaders of congregations of women religious and their vocation and formation personnel.
Never before in such a comprehensive yet succinct manner has a writer told her story of the journey and self discovery as a lesbian within a religious life commitment. The book is a small but powerful and moving read.
This booklet can be used to break open conversation on important issues such as sexual orientation, respect for diversity and honoring the journey of each member of religious communities.
Reverence the personal stories of our lesbian sisters.
Talk about why, when, or whether a lesbian religious comes out.
Discuss how to create forums for conversation in religious congregations about lesbian/gay issues.
