ReadingReligion: “One story narrates a woman’s attempt to seek justice for a community of disabled individuals, and who was denied support from her local church. Though this experience caused this woman to break with the Church, the story tells of her enduring faith in God and how this faith strengthened and encouraged her efforts. This story is particularly important, as it reflects many people’s relationship with religion in the modern day; many people express a lack of faith with churches or institutions, while still maintaining some level of belief in or love for God.” https://readingreligion.org/9781438485003/unruly-catholic-feminists/
