Women’s Equality Day

Reflection

“The moment we begin to fear the opinions of others and hesitate to tell the truth that is in us, and from motives of policy are silent when we should speak, the divine floods of light and life no longer flow into our souls.”
~ Elizabeth Cady Stanton

Prayer

God of wisdom and truth, bless our celebration of Women’s Equality Day in remembrance of the certification of the 19th amendment which affirmed women’s right to vote in the United States. Strengthen our voices that we may always have the courage to speak out for what is right and good and true. Fill our hearts with gratitude for those who came before us, who worked tirelessly to make the world more just. May their example encourage us in our efforts to create a better world. We pray this in your name. Amen.
