They have gone before us. Their names echo from centuries past: Mary, Martha, Perpetua, Monnica, Catherine, Margaret, Hilda, Elizabeth, Constance, Harriet. In our own day the saints among us give their lives in service and in thanks to God. They are preachers and teachers, parents and grandparents, bishops and theologians, sisters and spouses, godmothers and aunts, ministers of the gospel and friends along the way. They walk beside us – on each side of us. They are saints.

The 2009 All Saints Appeal of the Episcopal Women’s History Project is an opportunity to give thanks for the women who have supported us along the way and who have made vital contributions to the Christian story. Donations made in honor of women living and deceased will be used to support the various ministries of the Episcopal Women’s History Project. The names of all women honored, along with a brief biographical sketch, will be published in the project’s newsletter, TIMELINES. 

Honor the faithful women in your life today!
