This award seeks to honor exceptional women in the state of Maryland who embody their faith in their daily lives, exemplifying the virtues of faith, hope, and love.

About Maryland Catholic Women’s Conference:
The 2023 Maryland Catholic Women’s Conference will be held on Saturday, Nov. 11, 2023, at St. John The Evangelist in Severna Park.
The theme of this year’s conference is “Holy Women, Holy Lives,” which will focus on learning about the holy women we can look to for inspiration while examining how we can live holy lives as women in the modern world.
This day-long conference is an opportunity for up to 600 women from around the state to come together and deepen their faith by engaging in opportunities for confession, adoration, and Mass, as well as listen to dynamic Catholic speakers and enjoy fellowship. The conference is designed for women desiring to learn about their faith at any age or stage of life, including young adults, stay-at-home moms, business professionals, retirees, religious, mothers, daughters, aunties, and grandmas. This year, we are excited to offer talks in Spanish and limited childcare services to make the conference accessible to even more women.
