Mary responded to God’s call with faith and love. Do you sometimes find it hard to do the same in your life? Women of all ages are invited to FIAT where together we can learn how to joyfully, generously and courageously say “yes” to God’s call to each of us in our vocation as Catholic women.
All women are invited for prayer and a talk presented by a Kenrick-Glennon Seminary faculty member on the third Thursday of each month at the Seminary. Sign up here to receive reminders about this monthly event.

Twilight Fiats this Summer
This summer, we are excited to offer two extra Fiat opportunities! On June 19th and July 17th, we will host Fiat at our normal time in the morning, but we will have an additional evening session in our beautiful courtyard. We hope that this evening session will be a great opportunity for women who typically have work, caregiving, or other morning obligations on Thursdays. As with the morning talk, refreshments will be provided.
If you are coming to the evening session, please bring a lawn chair with you, as seating is limited.
