Speaking of IAWN and Gender organizations in the Church

Realizing this is a little overdue, I have decided to post a list of links to IAWN information and other organizations in the Church (or adjacent to the Church that do relevant work). Check out their work and information. Also, just for good measure here are some links to our organization's facebook group too.

IAWN at Joint Assembly 2013 in Ottawa

It is an exciting week for IAWN and the rest of the Canadian Anglican and Lutheran Churches as delegates gather in Ottawa for our very first joint assembly. The joint assembly is combines the two biggest Church meetings for the Anglican and Lutheran Churches - the Anglican General Synod and the Lutheran General Assembly. And just like Power Rangers and Captain Planet, we combine into something truly awesome (that fights evil? Okay the comparison is breaking down a little here). In any case, many organizations connected to these Churches will be setting up displays for delegates from across the country to check out. IAWN will have their display set up and will be reporting on any interesting conversations or developments of which we happen to catch wind while hanging out at Joint Assembly.

If you want to follow what is happening at this giant Church meeting, there are so many ways to do so. You can check out their website jointassembly.ca 
 for updates and live streaming of some of the events. You can also check out what twitter using folks are saying about it - the hashtag is #jointassembly. 

Otherwise you can get our spin on things here on the IAWN blog or on our facebook page. For now, I am going to leave you all and get back to making our display accessible to those who have QR scanners on their phones. It is a fun day.
