"What does the midwife tell us to do?"

"Breathe! And then? Push!"

A tortured vocation over the centuries, fought for by women who deserve what we might call secular canonization, midwives have been around since the start of human history.

Listen and learn of its saints from the past, and how today, midwifery is there to help all of us, regardless of gender, to be kind, brave, just, merciful, and hopeful.

But first, a message from a longtime member about how beer and pizza play into one's commitment to striving for justice.

All piano accompaniment and choir direction by Alex Pietsch.
