E-MINDER: the Church of the Incarnation

THE WEEK OF JULY 15 – JULY 22, 2007

This week the church remembers Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Amelia Bloomer,
Sojourner Truth, and Harriet Ross Tubman
, who are jointly given the title of Liberators and Prophets. 

Sojourner Truth

 

  O God, whose Spirit guides us into all truth and makes us free: Strengthen and sustain us as you did your servants Elizabeth, Amelia, Sojourner, and Harriet. Give us vision and courage to stand against oppression and injustice and all that works against the glorious liberty to which you call all your children; through Jesus Christ our Savior, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
