On November 4, 2021, a task force studying “Equality in the Church“ had its first meeting online. The intention of the meeting was to consider first strategic ways to anchor the topic in the policies of the church and to create awareness of equality at all levels. It is not only a question about how women pastors are treated but also about the general attitude to and treatment of women in our churches. Christians should be advocates of equality in all aspects of life just as God does not differentiate in his offer of salvation to all.
The participants of the meeting were the presidents of both German Unions and other top administrators and legal advisors as well as the Women’s Ministries Director for the German Unions and the Equal Opportunities Officer of the Bavarian Conference.
