Preserving the enduring wisdom of women of faith

Each March we pause to honor the women of faith who have made an indelible mark on our families, communities and congregations. This month we'll be paying particular attention to 20 special women whose contributions made  ̶  and are continuing to make  ̶  a powerful impact on our lives and faith. Return to this Web page each day in March to see their pictures and read their insights. The "Circles of Names" campaign to support women's ministries and gender justice programs in NCC member communions has been extended through March Women's History Month. The campaign gives donors opportunities to support ongoing and future work by honoring women who have made a difference. Participants may submit the name of a woman who is or has been influential in their faith life. More.
