The Midyear meeting 2016 of the EUD executive committee voted on May 22, 2016 the statement:
“To find, in compliance with existing policies, multiple ways to train and empower women for ministry and to encourage them to engage in all possible areas and levels of Church life and service.”
According to Denise Hochstrasser, WM Director for EUD this is meant to be an encouragement for the Leadership of our Church and its Institutions to find ways to strengthen and promote women to start a journey into ministry and to get more involved in church work at all levels. She hopes that it will be a signal for all church leaders throughout the Division.
