NCR expanded coverage for Women religious and associates

I encourage you to consider being part of this project.

As you are all aware, the National Catholic Reporter received a grant from the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation to expand coverage of women religious, both in the U.S. and internationally. As part of that initiative, a Global Sisters Report website will be launched in April.

Sister Jan Cebula, OSF, the Project Liaison for the website, has contacted us to explore how CWR members can become involved and contribute. As the Global Sisters Report website launch approaches, Sister Jan is reaching out to CWR for the specific needs for the website at this point in time:

Women religious and others associated with women religious who are interested in writing for a blog (short pieces) on a frequent basis. These would be responses to timely events or current issues in the news, written from the writer’s perspective. Persons interested in writing a blog, should contact Sister Jan Cebula, OSF at jcebula@ncronline.org for more information and to submit a writing sample.

Women religious who are interested in writing longer pieces (essay length--800-1000 words) on a regular basis on the following topics: environmental issues, economic inequality/poverty and contemplation. Persons interested should contact Sister Jan Cebula, OSF at jcebula@ncronline.org for more information and to submit a writing sample.

Young women in formation who are interested in writing occasional columns. Persons interested should contact Colleen Dunne at cdunne@ncronline.org and submit a writing sample.

Contributions of inspiring or compelling photographs or visual artwork. For more information, contact Tracy Abeln at tabeln@ncronline.org.
