Opportunity for Women


Ruth Tucker has greatly influenced me with her thoughtful writing.

Ruth is going to be at the seminary over lunch on March 23, Monday - topic: "Mrs. Packard and Me: Mining the Past for Mentors and Role Models."

Women friends - this will be good. Go through the cafeteria line and get lunch at their own expense ($5.00) or bring a lunch, and then join us in reserved seating where Ruth will speak around 12:30. If anyone wants to join me just show up or send me a message that you are coming and I will watch for you.

Ruth A. Tucker (PhD, Northern Illinois University) is a teacher, author, and lecturer. She has taught on alternative religions and missiology at both the graduate and undergraduate levels at many schools, including Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena, California, and Moffat College of Bible in Kenya. Ruth was the first female faculty member at Calvin Theological Seminary in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Currently, she is a visiting professor at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in Deerfield, Illinois. Ruth is the author of more than a dozen books, including Women in the Maze: Questions and Answers about Biblical Equality, Daughters of the Church, Guardians of the Great Comission, and the Gold Medallion Award-winning From Jerusalem to Irian Jaya.

I would have loved to have joined you and others today...I feel I need to be inspired. That could be
because I am sick and heading to the dr and I have laid around all
weekend.
May you be blessed as you share your friend.
