Women of the ELCA

Our mission is mobilizing women to act boldly on their faith in Jesus Christ.

As a community of women created in the image of God, called to discipleship in Jesus Christ, and empowered by the Holy Spirit, we commit ourselves to grow in faith, affirm our gifts, support one another in our callings, engage in ministry and action, and promote healing and wholeness in the church, the society, and the world.

Good News From the Margins

Book Signing

October 25 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm

United Lutheran Seminary, Brossman Center, Lull Lounge

7241 Germantown Avenue, Philadelphia

Join The Reverends Ruben Duran and Violet C. Little, along with Bishop Bryan Penman and those who have contributed to the newly released, “Good News from the Margins” for a book signing and conversation. A complimentary copy of the book will be provided for each congregation in the Southeastern Pennsylvania Synod along with information on how other copies might be obtained.

The book is filled with stories of hope and good news from those living and working on the margins, along with reflections from the authors and questions for either individual or group use.

From the Introduction of Good News from the Margins

“From that place of the margin, Jesus used stories not only to change minds but also to transform lives. It is our hope that this collection of stories, reflections, and questions for discussion will bring you a glimpse of the life-changing power of love and hope offered to each of us when we walk together as a people of God, a God whose heart has no margins but only a wide place of grace for all.”

Through a generous grant from ELCA Economic Diversity, you may order your complimentary copy:
