EVANGELICAL WOMEN IN THE FIRST HALF OF 1900; ELIZABETH SCHMIDT P/14

 

In this brief post I will focus on a woman named Elizabeth Schmidt. She lived from 1908 - 1986. Elizabeth was the daughter of a Member of Parliament and studied philosophy at the Sorbonne in Paris and then theology in Geneva. From 1935 - 1941, she was assistant with the Saint Croix Vallee Francaise Parish in the Cevennes region and then in Sete until 1958. The parishioners themselves asked for her ordination.
