Lifting Up Hope, Living Out Justice: Methodist Women and the Social Gospel
Lifting Up Hope weaves together immigration, gender, poverty, faith, and justice issues. Four Methodist deaconesses and a social settlement director in Chicago, leaders in the Methodist Federation for Social Service (founded 1907), advocated for protective food and drug laws and for labor laws for women and children in the U.S.
Mary McDowell, Isabelle Horton, Bertha Fowler, Grace Scribner and Winifred Chappell articulated a Christian faith that calls people to address root causes of poverty and gender discrimination.
