To: John La Grou <jl at jps.net>


 Volume Two of the Wikiklesia Project has been announced.

*Taking Flight: Reclaiming the Female Half of God’s Image.*

*A Journey of Freedom and Reconciliation*

**

The award winning *Wikiklesia Project* (www.wikiklesia.org)
*<http://www.wikiklesia.org>
*broke new ground as a crowd sourced, collaborative ecclesial publishing
model. Wiki One presented a “far reaching exploration of spiritual journey
contextualized within a culture of increasingly immersive technology.”  Wiki
Two enlarges the virtual anthology by exploring the rapidly changing
perception of women in faith leadership and how their participation will
shape the future church.

You are invited, both men and women, both published and non-published
authors and bloggers, to share your perspective and experiences. Send the
editors a 3-5 paragraph proposal by May 15, 2009. They will select fifty of
the most visionary and thought provoking articles for a year-long
interactive publication at Missional Tribe hub (link<http://missionaltribe.org/>
). Most of these articles will also be selected for the final hard copy
version of the book.  Sister projects with traditional publishers are also
on the radar.  Finished chapters should be maximum 3000 words and are due by
July 31, 2009. Images, diagrams, photos, poetry, and resources are
welcomed.  A few guest authors have already been confirmed and 100% of
project proceeds will go to Emancipation Network (
http://www.madebysurvivors.com/). <http://www.madebysurvivors.com/>

The time for disenfranchisement and debating women’s “place” has passed.
Wikiklesia *Volume Two* is dedicated to affirming and learning about women
who, as passionate contributors, use their gifts as well as serve alongside
their brothers —reclaiming a unified image for the Body of Christ. The
Editors are looking for stories from thinkers *and* doers who have dared to
imagine opportunities for women’s voices both within and beyond the
traditional framework of religious institutions and settings.

What wild adventures and stories of those “taking flight” are out there? How
will further progress be made? How can future generations of women be
inspired to realize their potential? We need *your *stories – the courageous
visionaries who are re-examining and re-imagining the roles of women of
faith – to present a fresh, comprehensive view that will inspire women (and
men!) to look expectantly towards a positively transformed 21st century
ecclesia.
