Meet our Guest Speaker
Together, we’ll hear from Vancouver Catholic speaker and writer Rachel Wong on the idea that “Our Belovedness is Our Giftedness”.
About Rachel
Rachel Wong is a daughter, sister, friend, and most recently an auntie to her first nephew. She works in the Communications Office for the Archdiocese of Vancouver and is passionate about putting her faith in action in her professional and personal life, proclaiming the Gospel using all forms of media to advance the local mission of the Church. She also is a longtime parishioner of St. Matthew's Parish in Surrey.
As Rachel has journeyed with the Lord, He has brought her to several unique places for mission and formation, including one year in St. Louis, Missouri as a postulant with the Daughters of St. Paul and working with an international cohort of young Catholic communicators through the Dicastery for Communication in the Vatican. She is an avid speaker, writer, and the former host of The Feminine Genius Podcast, a podcast that celebrates the diversity of Catholic femininity, one woman's story at a time. She currently shares (semi)frequent reflections on her blog, The Divine Appointment (rachelwong.substack.com).
