Women’s Equality Day

Women’s Equality Day

Reflection

“It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union. And we formed it, not to give the blessings of liberty, but to secure them … to the whole people – women as well as men.” –Susan B. Anthony

Prayer

Spirit of unity,

On Women’s Equality Day, we give thanks that our ministry is anchored upon foundational values that affirm and celebrate every human person’s equal dignity before you. As one human family, we are called to protect and secure the blessings of liberty that belong to all people without exception, by virtue of our creation in your image. Continue to guide us, therefore, to honor and support one another as equal members of your creation, working together for the common good. May our hearts reflect your love, and may our actions uphold the true spirit of unity you desire for us. Amen.
