One of my nieces, Meg Keogh, was accepted to and offered an acting scholarship to Carthage College, an ELCA college in Wisconsin. So proud of her and happy that she will be be attending school in an ELCA environment, be exposed to Lutheran spiritual values. Interesting how the Spirit has led another member of my family to the ELCA!
