All staff and students received a white lapel ribbon today - wear this with pride! The white ribbon represents our symbol for the year, the white lily/fleur de lis and celebrates our strength as women.

We look forward to celebrating IWD tonight at our special event. Bookings open, https://merici.news/event-created/international-womens-day-cocktail-party.

 

Loving God, we celebrate your

faithfulness and love. On this day

we commit ourselves to the promotion of

the full humanity of all women

everywhere. We know that whatever

denies, diminishes or distorts the full

humanity of women is not of God.

Help us to be faithful to your call to love.

Amen.
