This year, Ashley McKinless, Executive Editor of America magazine, will moderate a conversation among five Oratory women, asking, How are women being called to participate in the Church today?

The panel includes Alice Beal, Suleika Cabrera Drinane, Jane Kotapish, Heather Leykam and Anne-Elizabeth Straub, all women of our Oratory parishes.

The lecture is held annually to honor Joan Sexton, a woman who is remembered as fully participating in her faith, in our Church community and in her vocation as a woman in the Church and as a wife and mother.

Light refreshments will be served immediately following the panel in the narthex of the church.

*Please note that this is the date of the Five Boro Bike Race so plan ahead.
