Recorded on location from the 2021 Lutheran Women in Mission (LWML) convention in Lexington, Ky., this installment of Rachel’s Trivia Challenge celebrates over 80 years of mission and ministry made possible by the LWML.
Meandering meaningfully through time from the 1920s through the present, Rachel does her best to stump Sarah, Erin, and Bri on “a few great moments in LWML history.”
How did Lutheran women make history in 1938? What strong ethical stand cost the LWML a convention in 1955? When and where was the first LWML “bat-phone” installed? Who was Flat Jan? And, of course: how is an LWML convention like the iconic 1980s mullet haircut?
Think you know the answers? Play along at home and discover how much you know (or don’t know) about the LWML.
