Papal Conclave

After visiting the Villa today and discussing the candidates for the new pope with the sisters, I think that some of the important issues to discuss are interacting and relating with today's youth, the sex abuse scandal, allowing women and even married men to be priests and leaning away for more traditional values. I think the Church needs to understand that the world is changing and that the traditional values from before need to be let go or just evolved into something more modern. As a women in the church, I think it is important to express our desire to become priests and show that we are capable of leading the church as well or even better than a man. If I could I would allow women and dedicated sisters to become priests and help out in the church with a more hands-on approach then they are able to now. One thing the cardinals pray for is that the Holy Spirit guide them in making the right decision. I think that not only the cardinals but every single member of the Catholic Church needs to pray to the Holy Spirit in asking for guidance.
