Clergy Tax/ELCA Benefit Workshop 2021

Posted on January 11, 2021

It is time to mark your calendars for the annual Clergy Tax Law Short Course/ELCA Benefit Introduction on Saturday, February 13. The morning course will serve as a brief primer to the intricacies of clergy tax law. All M.Div. students who graduated in December 2020 or who will graduate in winter term, spring semester, summer term, or December 2021 are encouraged to attend. The morning session is not denomination-specific.

The afternoon session will introduce the benefit package offered for employees in the ELCA. The afternoon session would be appropriate for any M.Div. or M.A. student who will be seeking employment with an ELCA organization.

If you missed this session in the past and would like to attend, you are more than welcome. If you are a local pastor and need a refresher, you are also welcome.

“Jubilee Pathways” Workshops: January 26, February 2, February 9

Posted on January 11, 2021

Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church and Church of All Nations invite members of the Luther Seminary community to join the EcoFaith Network of the Minneapolis Area Synod and others for a series of three workshops called “Jubilee Pathways: Healing Our Relation to Land.” We encourage you to come to all three workshops as they build on each other, though you are welcome to participate even if you can only make one or two classes.

We hope that workshop participants will walk away with:

  • Grounding in fresh interpretations of biblical texts that root us in our call to seek restorative, regenerative ways of living on the land
  • Renewed imagination and practical insights for growing food and medicinal plants, using permaculture principles, as a way of healing and repair for Earth, self, and community
  • A clear analysis of how colonization and capitalism have broken our relationship with land
  • Connections with other people of faith who dream of building a just, livable future through healing our relationship to land

To learn more, please visit the workshop’s web page or contact Martha Bardwell, Associate Pastor at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church in Minneapolis (martha@oursavioursmpls.org).
