the Women of Trinity Cathedral are going to begin a discussion on the book Half the Sky.

The best way to fight poverty and extremism is to educate and empower women and girls.

Half the Sky lays out an agenda for the world's women and three major abuses: sex trafficking and forced prostitution; gender-based violence including honor killings and mass rape; maternal mortality, which needlessly claims one woman a minute. We will read, discuss and hopefully discern a call to action. What can we do, as individuals and as a community of faith.
