"Too few Anglican women involved in decision-making processes" [View all]

By ACNS staff

Not enough women are participating in decisions made by churches at all levels according to the Anglican Communion Office's Women's Desk Officer.

In an interview in the latest Anglican World magazine the Revd Terrie Robinson said that women's ministry, both lay and ordained, is still not lifted up and blessed by the church in the way it could be.

"What impresses me about women in all parts of the Communion is that they often go into places where others don't want to go," she said. "But sadly their work is often left at the fringes of Church life."
