Women in the Reformation

Women in the Refomation Auxiliary of CHI discussion

What were the women of Wittenberg doing while Martin Luther nailed his Ninety-Five Theses to the
door of the Castle Church in 1517? How did the Lutheran conception of law, gospel, and vocation affect
Europe’s mothers, daughters, sisters, and wives? Did the Reformation have a positive or negative
impact on the lives of Early Modern European women? Join us at the Concordia Historical Institute
Auxiliary’s fall meeting as we consider the lives of women in the Reformation with Molly Lackey.

Time and Place

The meeting will be on Thursday October 27th at 1:30pm in the conference room at Concordia Historical

Reserve your seat today! RSVP to CHI by October 17th at (314) 505-7900.
