Feb. 6 Feminism and Faith with The Rev. Hope Welles Jernagen

HopeOver the past few months, the cultural understanding of gender and justice has shifted. The #MeToo movement has caused us to question the way we relate to one another professionally and intimately. How do we engage this moment faithfully? What resources and challenges come from our spiritual traditions?  How do we both within and from the church make strides towards justice with women?
The Rev. Hope Welles Jernagen, a priest of The Episcopal Church also serves as the director of Magdalene St. Louis, a residential community for women who have survived lives of sexual exploitation, violence and addiction. Hope will lead us in a wide ranging discussion about faith, feminism, and the role of spirituality in dismantling the systemic oppression of women.
