theologian Halina Radacz |
from Poland came Halina Radacz to discuss with our Director of Women Working in the GAW woman guest Kelly, and three theologians from the Protestant Federation, to what extent another German-Polish theologians conference can be conducted. The last task is Konfrenez of 9-13.9.2009 in Mikolajki, Poland. Meanwhile, much has happened in Poland. A new young head of the Episcopal Church, last October, the Synod has spoken out again against the ordination of women. Even telling the synod that theologically there is nothing against women's ordination, but the specific Polish Special to the contrary. Certainly there are hintregründig arguments that no one speaks openly.
And yet there are women like Halina, who lead a congregation independently and make it all up to the baptism, funeral, etc. - that sounds very contradictory and difficult to understand. And you wish the Polish Luther Church enrichment by women in office or even a pastor bishop. What would be the wealth!
envisaged is now mid-2012 for further consultation in Poland, starting from the preparation work by the Polish sisters, the Federal Evangelsichen and GAW. - Pastor Enno Haak
