The Circle Widens


Sing for joy, O heavens, and exult, O earth; break forth, O mountains, into singing, for the Lord has comforted his people, and will have compassion on his suffering ones.                                 Isaiah 49:13
Today the Church celebrates the lives and witness of Lydia, Dorcas and Phoebe, in the ever the  ever widening early Christian community. In such a patriarchal society, we know little of the lives of the women who are mentioned in the Scriptures,  but we do know that the ministries of the guys whom we DO know about, including our Lord, were enriched and supported and nourished both physically and emotionally by these women.
