Join us remotely via Zoom for one hour on Wednesday, October 9, as we welcome back Mary Streufert, PhD, ELCA Director for Gender Justice and Women's Empowerment.

More details forthcoming.

If you missed Dr. Streufert's last presentation with us, you can find that here: What is Faithful Language for God?

Mary J. Streufert, Ph.D., serves in two director positions: Gender Justice and Women’s Empowerment (under the Office of the Presiding Bishop) and Quality of Call for Women in Ministry Initiative. Within the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) and the Lutheran World Federation (LWF), she works to support deep change to address patriarchy and sexism from an intersectional perspective through theological formation, education, production, and networking. If you are interested in learning more about this topic, see Dr. Streufert's book, Language for God: A Lutheran Perspective (Fortress Press, 2022).

To answer some commonly asked questions about these regular gatherings:

"Why are you still meeting?" "Don't become too familiar with loneliness. Community is a risk, but liberation depends on the collective. Who can you trust to hold you?" -- Cole Arthur Riley, author of Black Liturgies

"How can I prepare?" Courageous leaders pay attention and listen actively. We invite you to bring a spirit of curiosity and openness to these gatherings and to all aspects of your life. What are you noticing? Where is Spirit moving? How are you being invited to participate in the work God is already doing, especially outside the walls of the building where the church often gathers?
 
"What if I'm not a group person?" Courageous leaders take calculated risks. We invite you to take a small step outside your comfort zone and allow yourself to be seen and witnessed. We can almost guarantee that you will be pleasantly surprised by the loving, caring, and nurturing nature of community in this time together.
