More thoughts from the young women

Day three and the thoughts of the young women just keep getting better and better. I am so proud to be a Lutheran woman!

Patty writes: “The women in my life inspire me to be a leader. They inspire me to step up and serve.”

Robin writes: “They inspire me to try new things and to never give up. All the women I meet and talk to make a difference in the world and I know I can too.”

Angela writes: “My friendships make me strong, give me courage, and comfort me. I am less without them and so much more with them.”

Trisha writes: “Women of the ELCA are giving, loving, a blessing, friendly, and think of those who need God’s blessing and help throughout the world.”

Mary Beth writes: “They keep me on track and remind me every day that I am extremely blessed.”

Another young woman writes: “My mother is perhaps the strongest person I have ever known. I know that she would sacrifice anything for me. I know that God surely gave her to me as a blessing. I hope that every woman is able to experience that in a lifetime.”
