Let's all join our European Moravian women. Wear black next Thursday and advocate to end violence against women.

At the European Women's Conference we were all asked to wear black when we arrived. Here is the banner that stood at the front of the conference room. Janet Cooper spoke about the Unity Women's Desk of the Moravian Church work and the recent consultation about how we can all challenge gender based violence.

Thursdays in black. Join with sisters and brothers around the world each Thursday. Wear black and advocate for a world without r**e or violence.

That month the Unity Women's Desk of the Moravian Church Consultation stood together for the same reason in Tanzania. Let us each do it each week - a small and powerful statement.

From India to Zambia to Cuba to North Carolina... Moravians continue showing up for Thursdays in Black, an ecumenical movement of the World Council of Churches. We are advocating for an end to gender based violence.
