Kansas City Catholic Woman Becomes Priest In Ordination Ceremony Repudiated By Church [View all]

Carol Kuruvilla



A Missouri woman is claiming to be Kansas City’s first Roman Catholic priest.

Rev. Georgia Walker, a former Sister of St. Joseph, was ordained on Saturday in a ceremony that was not recognized by The Catholic Diocese of Kansas City - St. Joseph -- and will likely get her excommunicated.

Still, the 67-year-old says she wasn’t nervous.
