The value of women and girls is continually undermined. Battle Cry makes plain the desire that all who have an investment in Women’s Ministries – participants, leaders or as champions of women within The Salvation Army – would be informed on social justice matters and prepared to speak out with boldness, wisdom and grace. We want to see:

• Improved access to healthcare and a better understanding of women’s health
• Increased education and development opportunities for women and girls, with fair compensation for their skills and labour
• The elimination of violence against women and girls.

So long as there is need for women to rise up against these oppressive forces, we will continue to raise our battle cry: the waters are rising, but so are we. We are not going under, but over! May God go with us as we seek the values of his Kingdom.
