Abstract: This paper assessed the role of lay women in the Small Christian Communities. It discusses various roles of lay women in the Small Christian communities in the Catholic Church. The study was conducted in various SCCs in the five sub parishes within St Charles Lwanga Catholic Parish. This was because the SCCs are the family cells in the Catholic Church where evangelization and any church activities takes place before being presented to the church and the parish onwards. The paper will center its emphasis on the roles of lay women within the SCCs because they are the majority and the most active yet their roles and presence are yet to be recognized in the entire Catholic Church. The study was based on both primary and secondary data collected for a period of one year. The study was descriptive in nature.
Keywords: lay women, Small Christian Communities (SCCs).
