Women of Grace®, one of the nation’s largest Catholic women’s apostolates, is pleased to announce the addition of Monica Miller, Ph.D. and Anthony Nicolli to its board of directors.

Headed by founder and president, Johnnette S. Benkovic, the mission of Women of Grace® is to transform the world one woman at a time by affirming women in their dignity and vocation as daughters of God and in their gift of authentic femininity through ongoing spiritual formation.

“Integral to this mission are the staff and board members who are devoted to advancing the goals of this apostolate,” says Johnnette Benkovic. “This is why I am honored and delighted to welcome Anthony and Monica to our board. Their diverse talents and gifts will help to propel this organization ever more deeply into the heart of God’s plan for women at this critical moment in the history of the world and our Church.”
