A former student of mine has made some awesome achievements.
After high school she entered and completed a theology program. The next challenge was to be ordained in the Anglican church. Now at that time the Anglican church's official policy was that they would not ordain women . However, there was a loop hole. Some churches chose to ordain women. This was against official church policy. She was ordained.
I'm not sure how the next part of the story goes. I'm not sure what positions she had in the church.
However, she was a very gutsy lady to push and be ordained.
Yesterday, I heard that she is now a bishop! Her father was in the same residence as my friend and reported that his daughter is a bishop.
These are the type of people I like. She challenged the status quo and won.
She opened doors for many women coming after her.
She is now the Bishop of the Archdiocese of Kootenay.
