This book is a celebration of pioneers – of one particular pioneer, the Revd Constance Coltman, but also many wonderful pioneers in our own day, wonderful women and men.
“The legacy of her courage is a perpetual challenge to the many churches who are yet to embrace the ordination of women.”
Lydia Neshangwe, Moderator of the Council for World Mission 2020-24, the first African woman to serve in this role
“My prayer is that as you read this book, you too will be influenced, challenged and inspired by the stories of faith and courage to live out your calling and be true to yourself.”
Yvonne Campbell, General Secretary of the Congregational Federation, the first woman to serve in this role

“In exploring the life of Constance Coltman, and the pioneering ministry of women in a whole variety of contexts, this book reminds us of the real diversity of the witnesses who surround us.”
