Titus 2 for Life: A Training Retreat for Women
The “older” pro-life woman can transform the culture by mentoring a “younger” woman with God's gender-specific instructions for life. Resources include a Leader's Guide.
Called to Remember
This session, with companion Bible study, is a respectful “plea” to men asking them to remember God and practice the chivalry of Ephesians 5:25 for the benefit of society.

For many years, Linda designed Christian greeting cards and resources for her “cottage” ministry called Paper Treasures. She served on the Sanctity of Life Task Force of The Lutheran Church Missouri Synod for the ten years of its existence and on the boards of Lutheran Family Service of Iowa and the Iowa East Lutheran Women’s Missionary League.
Linda served as youth counselor, servant event coordinator, and high school Bible class teacher in her home congregation of Immanuel Lutheran in Iowa Falls, Iowa, where she continues to lead home Bible studies.
