This Wednesday, June 26, we will be having our first Summer Community Potluck in the Northwestern Atrium. We would love to see you all there! Bring your favorite hotdish, salad, baked good, or some other dish to share, and come join in fellowship with staff, faculty and students who are on campus for this final week of intensives.

Please note that instead of beginning at 11:30 am, the potluck will begin following chapel (most likely around noon). The community is encouraged to attend chapel at 11 am, as Pastor Justin will be preaching and presiding for the last time as our seminary pastor. Following worship, come on over to Northwestern for food and fellowship!

The Luther Place parking lot will have a final layer of asphalt set on June 24 and 25. Please use the parking available at NWH, OCC and Bockman lots.
