In pursuit of her urge to communicate and to test her ideas, Elisabeth Moltmann-Wendel was a copious networker, especially with other female theologians. As early as the 1980s the [[Tübingen]] home that she shared with [[Jürgen Moltmann |her husband]] - by this time a noted theological scholar on his own account - was a meeting location for theologians from [[Germany]], [[Austria]], [[Switzerland]] and further afield. Regular guests included her friend [[:de:Herlinde Pissarek-Hudelist |Herlinde Pissarek-Hudelist]], a formidable theologian from [[University of Innsbruck |Innsbrick]], who in 1988 became the first ever [[Dean (education) |female dean]] of a catholic theology faculty.<ref name=EMWlautBEP/><ref name= HPHlautMH>{{cite web |author=Heizer Martha |title="Wenn meine Mutter Zeit hat, arbeitet sie" Herlinde Pissarek-Hudelist |work= Biographischer Artikel über Herlinde Pissarek-Hudelist |date=29 May 2002 |publisher=Universität Innsbruck |url= https://www.uibk.ac.at/theol/leseraum/texte/206.html |accessdate=19 February 2022}}</ref> Others included [[Catharina Halkes]] from [[Nijmegen]], [[:de:Helen Schüngel-Straumann|Helen Schüngel-Straumann]] from (originally) [[Switzerland]] and [[:de:Elisabeth Gössmann|Elisabeth Gössmann]] who had received her [[Doctor of Theology|doctorate in Theology]] from [[Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich|the University of Munich]] at the same time as [[Pope Benedict XVI|Joseph Ratzinger]]. (1954 had been the first year in which doctorates in catholic theology were awaded in Germany.) Between 1955 and 1986 [[:de:Elisabeth Gössmann |Gössmann]] had worked in [[Sophia University|Tokyo]], but the final decades of her teaching career she spent back in Europe. In 1986 Moltmann-Wendel was one of thise involved in creating the "Europäische Gesellschaft für theologische Forschung von Frauen“ (ESWTR / ''"European Society of Women in Theological Research"'').<ref name=EMWlautBEP/><ref name= EMWlautHSS/><ref name=EGlautIF>{{cite web |title=Obituary on Professor Dr. Dr.hc. mult.

In order to secure and preserve the rapidly increasing fruits of researches in [[Feminist theology]], Moltmann-Wendel joined with [[:de:Herlinde Pissarek-Hudelist |Pissarek-Hudelist]] and others to launch the "Wörterbuch der Feministischen Theologie" (''"Dictionary of Feminist Theology"'') in 1980 which, now into its second edition, remains a standard work.<!---in 2016 when her obituarioes were written---> She turned town invitations to help on preparing the feminist [[:de:Bibel in gerechter Sprache|"Bibel in gerechter Sprache" (''"Bible in the right language"'')]]. She shared the belief that "the language of the [Lutheran and later] bible(s), like the church itself [was] male-sexist", but she believed that the guidelines for this particular project were excessively rigid and one-sided.<ref name=EMWlautBEP/><ref name=UmBibelingerechterSprache>{{cite web |title=„Bibel"Bibel in gerechter Sprache”–Sprache"– die Bibel der Feministinnen und Feministen |date=10 January 2008 |author=[[:de:Jens Motschmann |Pastor Jens Motschmann]] |publisher=Gemeindehilfsbund (Gemeinnütziger Verein), Walsrode |url= https://www.gemeindenetzwerk.de/?p=1966 |accessdate=19 February 2022}}</ref>
