Before I (Rebecca) even got to the table my spirit was boosted and I couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t wait to chat with the people in attendance. Hundreds of Episcopal Priests, Deacons and parishioners passed by our table in the exhibit hall and all who were asked to sign on to a letter of support for the ERA did so. People were excited to read more about Reverend Swanson, especially the many women priests in attendance!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.katrinasdream.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/ERZ-AZ-2-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1653 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.katrinasdream.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/ERZ-AZ-2-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"251\" height=\"263\" \/><\/a>We talked with everyone who passed by and ran out of postcards encouraging the AZ reps to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment.

All in all, we talked with over 100 people and enjoyed the atmosphere of love and acceptance.
