Bold Women's Sunday
March 2, 2025
This Sunday, we celebrate women. Bold Women’s Day celebrates Lutheran women who have, or who currently are acting boldly on their faith in Jesus Christ.
The sermon this week will be brought by guest speaker Re. Ruth Ann Sipe, co-director of Lutheran Disaster Relief Carolinas. Women of the ELCA will lead the service. A reception wil follow the service.
Bold women are a part of our faith’s genealogy: the woman at the well, the persistent widow, the women at the tomb, and those certain women who supported Jesus and the disciples.
On this day we honor or remember bold women from our community and the bold women in our midst, who act boldly on their faith.
The women of St. Mark’s lead boldly in many capacities. Our bold women work tirelessly for the good of our church, giving the glory to God in all we do.
Bold women are not all bold in the same way. Whether speaking out against injustice or holding the hand of a friends who is in pain, boldness is all about living out our baptismal call, about being a disciple of Christ.
Lutheran theology empowers us to take risks. Our ability to act boldly is rooted in our baptism and continually enabled, empowered and sup-ported by God’s grace.
March is Women’s History Month, which provides an opportunity to pause and reflect on the contributions women have made to our nation over time. And Bold Women’s Day commemorates Lutheran women who have acted or are acting boldly on their faith in Jesus Christ through prayer, service, advocacy, hospitality and other ways.
“Whether we live out our bold story of faith in the workplace, family home or community, our faith compels us to make a difference in the lives of others,” says Linda Post Bushkofsky, executive director of Women of the ELCA. “It’s all about living out our baptismal call, about being a disciple of Christ.”
The women of St. Mark’s are the lifeblood of our church. Women serve in leadership positions of all kinds. Women lead worship. Women head committees. Women plan events. Our women are active in the community, and state and conference levels of the Women of the ELCA.
