Faithful, Fearless Women: A Diocesan Celebration of Women's Ministry

On June 13, 2021, The Diocese of Missouri will honor the life and ministry of Barbara Harris, the first woman bishop in the Anglican Communion. The Rt. Rev. Deon Johnson will lead a diocesan-wide worship service to celebrate Bishop Harris and all women in ministry. The event will be available online on our website and our Facebook page.

Leading up to that event, we're taking a look back at some of the founding mothers of our diocese. A special video series, Faithful, Fearless Women: A Diocesan Celebration of Women's Ministry, features just a few of the many women who built the foundation of faith on which we all stand. Each episode will be narrated by a women clergy member serving in the diocese today.

We'll be releasing the stories May 25 through June 10, every Tuesday and Thursday. You can watch them here, or on Facebook or YouTube.


Part One:
The 1800s - Orphanages in the early days of the diocese


Part Two:
Early 1900s - Serving our neighbors



Part Three:
1940s - 1970 - Women in Church Governance Roles


Part Four:
1960s - Civil Rights


Part Five:
1970s - Women's Ordination


Part Six:
Today and Tomorrow

Approximately 10,000 people throughout Eastern and Central Missouri find their faith home with us. About three-quarters of our members are in the metro St. Louis area, but our diocese reaches much farther than St. Louis. You will find more than 40 Episcopal churches, missions and faith communities as far north as Kirksville, as far west as Columbia, and as far south as Poplar Bluff (and many points in between).

If you are looking for a church home or a just a faith community to visit, we invite you to explore The Episcopal Diocese of Missouri.
