What’s Happening with Religious Orders? New Book Traces the Future of Consecrated Life
Eileen C. Jaramillo says the book uses Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate data to trace new communities since 1965.
- Canon lawyer and theologian Eileen Jaramillo released her new book, "Discerning Charism: The Key to Founding Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life," now available on Amazon in paperback, hardcover, and eBook formats.
- While religious life in the United States has often been framed by stories of decline, aging memberships, and closures, new communities continue to emerge, raising questions about discernment and authenticity.
- Drawing on data from the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate , Jaramillo outlines canonical stages communities must navigate, from associations of the faithful to diocesan recognition and potentially pontifical status.
- Jaramillo served 25 years as a diocesan judge in Ohio and Michigan, advising bishops and religious superiors internationally. She also served on the Board of Governors of the Canon Law Society of America.
- "The spiritual and legal dimensions must remain together," Jaramillo added, explaining she wrote the book because people came with beautiful visions and she had to explain what the Church requires.
