In November 2024, the CCAP General Assembly will host a women’s conference under the theme:
100 years of Women’s Leadership and Service in CCAP
Presentations will be made under this theme and related to the following headings:
- Celebrating the legacy of the first women to study theology in CCAP
- The impact of 25 years of women’s ordination in CCAP – the past, present and future of women’s ordination
- Stories of our experiences as women ministers and leaders in CCAP
- Leadership roles of women in CCAP
- Contribution of women in the development and empowerment of other women
A call for papers has been issued with a deadline of 30th September 2024 for submissions. Papers will be reviewed by the editorial team under the leadership of the CCAP General Assembly’s Secretary General, Rev Dr Mwawi Chilongozi. The aim is to foster discussion that empowers women for continued ministry and service within the church and beyond. This conference is part of a wider project, including workshops within CCAP synods and the publication of a book, which is being supported by the Church of Scotland Guild.
