This blog has included posts about the Vatican's three-years study of women religious in the United States. There have been numerous articles, both pro and con, written about the study. For the most part, U.S. bishops have remained silent. The silence has proven to be costly - to the tune of $1.1 million. The Vatican has requested that U.S. bishops foot the bill for the study. I actually have no problem with this, as long as the bishops have access to all of the information gathered and related reports. Institutes of women religious should also have access to the same information. The information may be very helpful as nearly every Roman Catholic entity - parishes, dioceses, religious institutes, etc. - struggles to meet growing needs with fewer human and financial resources.
