Visit from Irene Mhogolo, Advocate of Women’s Causes

Irene Mhogolo visited St. Paul’s, Sunday, March 6, engaging with us in conversation before our Mardi Gras service. She is an advocate for women’s causes and the wife of Presiding Bishop of Central Tanganyika, Mdimi Mhogolo. In rural Africa, she works with women to find new income opportunities, leadership roles, and education.
Before visiting the Diocese of Virginia, she presented “Women and Education in Tanzania” at the United Nations Committee on the Status of Women while in New York City.
While traveling in the South, she will also visit the Diocese of Atlanta. The Dioceses of Virginia and Atlanta are both involved with the Carpenter’s Kids programs.
