“Change Is Slow, Patience Is Necessary, and Mistakes Are Part of the Process”
I don’t “know” many things, but I still feel in my heart that God has a plan for Exponent II.
Exponent II
A feminist forum for Mormon women and gender minority voices
I don’t “know” many things, but I still feel in my heart that God has a plan for Exponent II.
I am grateful beyond words, dear Exponent.
Finally, I was surrounded by what Anne of Green Gables called “kindred spirits.”
When I think about the retreat and the Exponent II community, I think of innumerous connections, conversations, laughs, memories, celebrations, songs, dances, and gifts of trust.
There on page 5 was the poem my mother had submitted.
I have continued to read the blog every month and pore over each quarterly magazine for those same stories of bold, vulnerable life.
The women I’ve met through the Exponent’s virtual writing workshops, especially the generative session, have quietly and enthusiastically stood by as I bared my soul to them and have given me hope in the goodness of friendship.
How do I say thank you to the pages that speak to my heart?
