"The groups represent the whole spectrum of The Episcopal Church today." remarked the Reverend Margaret Rose. "There are organizations focused on prayer and those with activist missions; there are groups focused on supporting women within the church, and those whose mission is not gender specific; some organizations have male members; theologically they represented all positions within the Church."

“Members from the Council of Women's Ministries… Recognizing that women do ministry in many ways, and that working as part of a formal ministry begun by women is only a part of this array of ministry, the group has chosen a new name, the Council of Episcopal Women's Organizations… The purpose of the group is to provide support for each other and to look for ways that organizations can cooperate in ways that will extend the reach of each organization.”  More
