Bible-study author steals the show in Lakewood

Some 140 members of the Southwestern Washington Synod Women of the ELCA took in remarks from Audrey West, professor at the Lutheran Church of Theology at Chicago and author of a new Gather magazine Bible study, on Aug. 18 near Tacoma.

"As I do the studies each month, I will see Audrey West pacing the sanctuary as she talked and coaxed us to talk," said Carol Fossum of Mountain View Lutheran Church of Edgewood, one of the organizers.

West, speaking at the gathering at Christ Lutheran Church of Lakewood, said, "This study will give you lots of opportunities to discover and re-discover. God gathers, God is present, the two things we are focusing on with the gathered people."

Persons interested in taking part in the 2012/2013 study can subscribe to Gather at $12 annually by calling 800-328-4648 or e-mailing to subscriptions@augsburgfortress.org.
