Ordination of Women

The World Communion of Reformed Churches is particularly committed to gender justice and the just and full participation of women in all areas of church and society.

The 2017 General Assembly adopted “The Declaration of Faith on the Ordination of Women” and pledged to journey with those members who do not yet ordain women.

The ordination of women is not just about having more women in the ministry; rather it’s about recognizing that by including women in ministry and as equals in church leadership would create a powerful force for social and economic justice throughout the world.
