Female Religious Leadership in American History (Jr/Sr High School Module)
Women have played a vital role in the religious history of the United States, serving as founders for new religious groups, like the Seventh-day Adventists, or leading religious-based movements, like the Temperance movement. Many have fought, and continue to fight, for the right to be ordained ministers. In this learning module, you will learn the important events and people in female religious leadership throughout American history.
