[1]Women's March
John,
After tens of thousands of us took to the streets for the Rally For
Abortion Justice on October 2, Women's March is proud to be partnering
with Auburn Seminary to host a conversation about an important topic:
Faith and abortion.
Together, we'll gather virtually to have a conversation with diverse
spiritual leaders across multiple faith traditions and cultural
groundings. We will be exploring two fundamental questions:
1. How do we tell a different story about abortion and faith?
2. How do we talk to other people of faith about abortion?
This conversation is urgent and necessary. Too often, abortion is
challenged on the grounds of faith, while voices of faith and spirit that
support abortion care are unheard or ignored. On this call, we'll discuss
the conversations about faith and abortion we know we need to have with
our family and friends; the challenges such conversations bring up for us;
and the successes as well as setbacks we’ve experienced when we’ve had
such conversations.

Faith, happening next Thursday, October 14 from 5:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. ET.
We're hoping to get as many Women's Marchers as possible to join this
important conversation.
I'll be there! →
As challenges to safe, affordable abortion care intensify across states
and in the Supreme Court, we need to come together to change the narrative
and empower difficult but essential conversations.
Panelists will be:
Noor Mir: organizer, facilitator and digital strategist for the Women’s
March (Moderator)
Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg: Rabbi, widely published author and Scholar in
Residence at the National Council for Jewish Women.
Kenyetta Chinwe, reproductive justice leader raised in the Pentecostal
faith. She is the Faith Advocacy Coordinator at SisterSong.
Gina Breedlove, Medicine woman, sound healer, vocalist and composer,
founder of Vibration of Grace, co-founder of rethinc, working with Auburn
Seminary’s Sojourner Leadership Circle cohort of reproductive justice
leaders.
Dr. Elizabeth Freese, Research Associate with Auburn Seminary and Adjunct
Professor in Religion and Society at Drew University Theological School.
Her work focuses on exploring ways to talk about abortion morality in
liberal Christian faith communities.
