At the same time she was also, in the
sixties, the President of the EBWU. For generations Elisabeth has
done many good things for the Baptist Women of Germany and
Europe. Always with a heart full of love for her Lord and
Saviour, knowing she had the duty and ability to serve.
The President of Germany writes in her memory words that they have not
lost her: she will remain in the hearts of those who knew her, and in
all the very valuable writings she has left! Yet the women are
very sad she is not in their midst any more.
Elisabeth Flügge had the privilege to get the age of 100 years – 100
years in which she has witnessed the founding of the German
Women's Union, which is 83 years young at this time.
We give thanks to God for giving such a
fine godly leader to Germany and to Europe. We praise Him for her life
and witness and the encouragement she was to so many people. She
has left behind a great example for us to follow.
