Presiding Bishop Michael Curry appointed Ruthie McLain of Calvary Episcopal Church (Memphis) as one of nine delegates from the Episcopal Church to the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women. This year’s conference theme—"innovation and technological change, and education in the digital age for achieving gender equality and the empowerment of rural women and girls”—is timely, considering how the world has evolved since the pandemic began, noted Lynnaia Main, The Episcopal Church’s representative to the United Nations.

This week on Faithfully Memphis, Ruthie joins Bishop Phoebe live from the UN to give an update from the session, as part of our Women in the Church series.
