This action in ministry explores the experience of hope in the lives of women who live with mental illness. I began this research project confident that Christianity is a faith tradition that supports and fosters hope and wholeness among people. Using the theoretical foundations of adult religious educators and the insights of Christian feminist liberation theologians, I facilitated a spirituality gathering of women at Our Place, Community of Hope. I chose to use Christian feminist theologians because these women have influenced my life profoundly, nurturing my hope and giving me courage to own my place in church and society. My greatest desire for the women who gathered together was that they develop a deepening sense of hope as they learn of a God who loves them unconditionally. In my research I wanted to learn about the experience of hope in women who participated in the gatherings as well as to determine if their hope was nurtured by these gatherings. To do this I used the question: How does adult education nurture hope among women at Our Place. The findings illuminate the fact that hope lies deep within the consciousness of these women and that the women's spirituality gathering played a momentous role in nurturing their hope.
