One Billion Rising: Uniting to End Violence Against Women

Sarah Thompson is a graduate of Anabaptist Mennonite Biblical Seminary and currently works as outreach coordinator for Christian Peacemaker Teams.

By Sarah Thompson

If our theology is not speaking to violence against women in all forms, and not moving us toward one another in order to be in solidarity with one another in the most intimate, terrifying moments as well as the moments of life passage, then it is not relevant.

Mennonites and Christians are all over the world.  It is possible that one of the women or men in this film is a member of a Mennonite World Conference affiliated church, and more likely than that, that Christians are represented? Learn more about One Billion Rising and what this powerful short film: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gl2AO-7Vlzk
