- "In 1988 when the World Council of Churches proclaimed the Ecumenical Decade of Churches in Solidarity with Women in Church and Society, some women in Canada came together to consider how they could support, encourage, and assist involvement across Canada and throughout the denominations in what the World Council declared as the aims of the Decade .... In January 1990, this group appointed a committee to produce a book of worship resources, meditations, and devotional material written by women across Canada. It wanted a book that would be ecumenical in nature, that would provide an opportunity for women to express their faith, and that would reflect through a variety of topics, the experience of women's lives across Canada. The contributions chosen by the committee come from women in nine provinces and in seven denomination: Anglican, Baptist, Disciples of Christ, Lutheran, Presbyterian, Roman Catholic, and United Church". -- Preface.
