- Notes
- "[By] Wendy Fletcher-Marsh".
- Includes bibliographical references but NO index.
- This book "reinforces the critical importance of `preserving' ecclesial initiatives, particularly those which owe their existence and their continued life to the creativity, courage and commitment of `women of God'. The extraordinary variety and the sheer magnificence of Anglican women's work has yet to be sufficiently acknowledged, let alone respectfully appreciated throughout the Anglican Communion and so I welcome this book as a significant effort toward redeeming this ongoing problematic. This narrative provides overwhelming evidence of the irrepressible capacity of women to push relentlessly toward, within and beyond all of the myriad `places of possibility' within our inherently patriarchal church structures". -- Preface, p, ix].
