Internationella kvinnodagen 2015 ”Make it Happen”

”Equal in Faith organizers embrace the official theme of International Women’s Day 2015, ”Make it Happen,” as a call for all people of faith to stand with women everywhere in the struggle for equality.”

”When women are denied equitable leadership positions in their faith, it is part of a larger culture of sexism that not only silences women’s vocations and voices, but implicitly gives permission to the rest of the world to discriminate against women,” stated Kate McElwee, of WOC.

”Equality shouldn’t stop at the doors of our churches, synagogues or mosques,” asserted Lorie Winder, of Ordain Women. ”We refuse to tolerate discrimination against women in our secular institutions.  Why, then, do we accept it in our religious institutions?  Since religion significantly impacts the broader culture, the marginalization of women in our faith communities affects all of us.”
