The Evening of Reflection affords women the opportunity to come together and reflect on the holy and sublime dignity that God has given them. By prayerfully focusing on one of the key themes in John Paul II’s encyclical Mulieris Dignitatem ("On the Dignity of Women"), the event introduces women to the profound insight contained therein and sparks interest for further inquiry.

To date, four regional Evenings of Reflection have taken place across the Diocese and have been very well received! Parishes are welcome to contact us for information on how to conduct their own evening of reflection – at least two parished-based Evenings of Reflection have taken place so far.
