Unlike many other Christian confessions, the Catholic church remains strongly opposed to the ordination of women. Over the last weeks, feminist associations, have been working on various initiatives to put pressure on the ongoing Synod. As a symbolic challenge to the status quo, the association of Roman Catholic Women Priests in Rome has organized a Mass to celebrate the ordination of women priests.
