First Female Archbishop Shatters Stained Glass Ceiling
The installation of the first female Archbishop of Canterbury marks a historic milestone for women clergy in the Episcopal Church, reflecting on the long struggle towards ordination and the future of women in ministry.
Women clergy in the Episcopal Church are celebrating a historic milestone with the installation of the first female Archbishop of Canterbury. This groundbreaking appointment shines a spotlight on the long, arduous journey towards women's ordination and the evolving role of women in ministry.
Dame Sarah Mullally's installation as the 133rd Archbishop of Canterbury is a testament to the progress made, but also a reminder of the ongoing challenges that women clergy continue to face. Her pilgrimage from London to Canterbury Cathedral, a journey of 87 miles, was a symbolic act that honored the hard-won fight for gender equality in the church.
