Fostering conversations among persons of good will who seek to affirm our common humanity while yet appreciating our profound differences, is an important part of the Center's mission. The Center, however, takes no position on internal theological debates, affirming every person's right to believe any religion or no religion. After the fall of the Temple, both Judaism and the fledgling Christianity underwent radical changes. Women have always undertaken vital informal leadership roles in faith communities and today there are a growing number of religious groups in which women have attained official responsibilities as formal leaders in their faith communities. Please join us to hear the stories of some very exceptional women, each of whom will tell of her personal journey to leadership in her faith.
All sessions are free and open to the public.
