WHO WE ARE:
The Young Clergy Women Project is an initiative---a collection of new programs that are by, for and about the youngest ordained women, defined as those under forty.
We started out in November 2006 as just an idea, really, about getting young ordained women together to talk online. In the spring of 2007, we received a grant from The Louisville Institute that supported our preaching conference, board meeting, and our web page. Energy begets energy, though, and these initial funded programs have created more ideas and programs. Stay tuned as we navigate these first few years together!
