Woman wearing Santa Claus hat demands that a woman becomes a member of the Swiss Bishops' Conference
Catholic woman wearing a "mitre" demands: "A woman is needed in the Swiss Bishops' Conference"
In mid-January, Agatha Gachnang pointed out to the Bishop of Chur, Joseph Maria Bonnemain, that a woman urgently needs to be a member of the Swiss Bishops' Conference. She recently reiterated this demand in a letter to the editor. She explains her motivation to kath.ch.
"During Bishop Bonnemain's visit to Dürnten, I also advocated for the inclusion of a woman in the Swiss Bishops' Conference," writes Agatha Gachnang in a letter to the editor published on Zo-online on February 27. The letter is titled: "A woman is needed in the Swiss Bishops' Conference."
In it, Gachnang explains her initiative: "It wouldn't even be a precedent! After all, in its Nordic counterpart, the Nordic Bishops' Conference, a nun already holds a seat."
