Being a Priest with Fr. Cathie Caimano

For women, titles can be complicated - especially in the church. My guest today is Father Cathie Caimano, a colleague, friend, and the first ordained woman I ever saw behind the altar and in a pulpit at church. Back then, I tell her, that rocked my inner Roman Catholic world! In today's conversation, we talk about being women priests, why she goes by Fr. Cathie, online dating, and of course, some of the dreams we have for a more expansive faith community. Regardless of your profession and whether or not church is a part of your world I think you will enjoy listening to her story of calling and career and the ways in which she lives into her intuitive sense of sharing her gifts.
