Join the Canonically Speaking host Fr Paul Hayward as he speaks with Sister Ishbel MacPherson.
Sr Ishbel was born in Fort William, Scotland, in 1933, and in 1950 joined the Institute of the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur. She dedicated many years to teaching in schools and in retreat-giving, and in the late 1970s began working in the Westminster Diocesan Tribunal. She obtained a doctorate in canon law shortly after the promulgation of the 1983 Code of Canon Law, and was appointed as one of the first non-cleric judges in Great Britain.
In this episode she reflects on her pioneering work in the canon law world as one of very few fully qualified women canonists, and offers memories of some of the early Conferences of the Canon Law Society of Great Britain and Ireland, of which she has been awarded honorary life membership.
