Hosted by the Diocese of Newcastle’s Continuing Ministerial Formation (CMF), join parish priest and feminist theologian Ruth Harley for a fascinating and inclusive afternoon talk about gender justice. Ruth will draw on her PhD research into the vocational narratives of older women to consider how our understanding of the vocation of the Church as the body of Christ can (and should!) be expanded and enriched by taking the experience of women in the Church seriously as a site of theological meaning-making.
Gender justice is not a ‘women’s issue’, it’s an essential issue for the whole Church, so come and grapple together with how theology can be a force for good in the struggle against patriarchy.
