Baptist Heritage Queensland
(BHQ) is working on a project to celebrate the contribution women
have made to the work of Christian witness and service in Queensland
and beyond. This initiative will take the form of a publications
with the stories of women and a function at which their work
can be commemorated. It will cover the whole period of Baptist
work in Queensland. |
|
|
|
Information is being sought
about women who have made a significant contribution to Baptist
churches in Queensland, other Christian work, missionary work
and public life. They can be women who were involved at local
church level or through the denomination, as deaconesses and
missionaries or in their local areas as professional people like
teachers, nurses and doctors or workers in community organizations
like the Red Cross, CWA, local government and in other ways.
A selection will be made from the names supplied and cameos of
their life and ministry will be researched and published. |

|
|
The celebration event will
be an occasion when interested people can come and hear the results
of the project and listen to some talks and testimonies, and
see displays. BHQ would coordinate this and where possible, draw
upon the interest, skills and resources of the other groups who
have interest and contributions to make. |
