We believe you'll find things here that make you want to join us ...
 | to find companions in working for peace and justice |
 | to share with others in caring for our earth |
 | to work together to help our Presbyterian Church become more open and
inclusive. |
Our quarterly newsletter, Network News, offers
a variety of essays and commentary on issues confronting the
Presbyterian Church, and concerns for our wider society and world.
Many of those stories are posted on this web as well, but the newsletter
will provide them in permanent form, easily shared with friends and
colleagues.
If you're interested in forming
a local progressive group (in your presbytery perhaps), we'll help
you with contacts in your area, plus ideas and materials.
Information, support, a chance to help shape our
church for a mission of peace and justice in the 21st century ... what
more could you want??
So ... you can

Voices of Sophia blog
Heather Reichgott, who has created
this new blog for Voices of Sophia, introduces it:
After fifteen years of scholarship
and activism, Voices of Sophia presents a blog. Here, we present the
voices of feminist theologians of all stripes: scholars, clergy,
students, exiles, missionaries, workers, thinkers, artists, lovers
and devotees, from many parts of the world, all children of the God
in whose image women are made. .... This blog seeks to glorify God
through prayer, work, art, and intellectual reflection. Through
articles and ensuing discussion we hope to become an active and
thoughtful community. |
