What We Do

The Episcopal Women’s Caucus embraces and strives to make real the Gospel vision for humanity, earth and church by:

  • Challenging the way the church worships, looks at Scripture, lives theology, educates clergy and laity;
  • Stimulating the healthy spiritual growth and faith development of adults and children;
  • Educating and advocating for the full equality and participation of women of color and gay/lesbian/bisexual/transgendered persons in church and society;
  • Assisting the church to dismantle systems of marginalization, exploitation and abuse of women and minorities;
  • Affirming and promoting the theological, liturgical and scholarly contributions of womanists/mujeristas/feminists;
  • Raising visibility of women and minorities in liturgy, Bible study, leadership, religious education, media and publications;
  • Working with networks and coalitions including: ABIL (Asian, Black, Indigenous and Latino); Episcopal Church Women; The Anglican Women’s Network; Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice; Feminist movements ecumenically and across the Anglican Communion; Council for Women’s Ministries; and The Consultation, a lobbying coalition for General Convention including Integrity (advocacy for gay/lesbian/ transgender/bisexual issues), Union of Black Episcopalians, and the Episcopal Peace Fellowship.
