Women of Spirit and Faith
invites you to join
our vibrant community of diverse intergenerational women
at the 2023 Parliament of the World’s Religions
in Chicago August 14-18.
As we did prior to the 2015 Parliament in Salt Lake City, we will once again anchor a full-day sacred circle gathering for women and female-identified persons on the day before the Parliament opens. This is a powerful opportunity for each of us individually to get more authentically connected to our spiritual roots before we enter into the Parliament. This sacred space, co-created through shared intergenerational and interfaith leadership over many months by a diverse group of women, will offer a safe container in which we can tell our truths, express our needs and share our wisdom. Using circles with a sacred center, we listen deeply for arising feminine wisdom and grow in our own capacity to give voice to what is needed now. Our collective spiritual wisdom has the potential to inspire and inform the entire Parliament of the World’s Religions.
We have limited space so register now! Our Early Bird registration fee of $59 (which includes continental breakfast and lunch) will increase to $70 on May 1.

WSF IS ON THE OFFICIAL
PARLIAMENT PROGRAM
Three of our proposals for workshops, co-created with our Young Leaders, were accepted and we are so excited to be on the program!
We will announce more details about the exact days and times as we know more but you can look forward to joining us as we anchor these exciting and engaging explorations:
Celebrating Women’s Spiritual Leadership Across Generations
In this experiential workshop, diverse women ranging in age from 20 to 85 will share their challenges bringing their spiritual wisdom and offer a unique vision for the future of faith in a changing world.
Saving the Baby from the Patriarchal Bathwater: Young Women’s Wisdom on Rebalancing Faith and Spirit
Hear from a group of diverse millennial and Gen Z young women about their spiritual beliefs, experiences with organized religion and unique insights about the future.
The Healing Power of Mary Magdalene
Mary Magdalene holds a key to where we should go next to heal the spiritual heart of humanity.
CAN YOU DONATE TO OUR YOUNG LEADERS SCHOLARSHIP FUND?
WSF is serious about our commitment to financially support diverse young women who would not otherwise be able to afford to attend this Parliament. We have a goal of providing registration costs, transportation, lodging and meals for at least 30 young women.
These are the voices we need to hear in Chicago!
We would deeply appreciate a donation in any amount.
DONATE HERE
Let's keep feeding each other, supporting each other and holding space together for the Good.
