Farewell to Karen Gieseke
Dear Luther Community,
After nearly seven years of leadership in the contextual learning office, Karen Gieseke is ending her time with us. We are forever grateful for a colleague who has approached life from a place of abundance! She brought leadership to multiple areas at Luther Seminary: boundary workshops, teaching Strengths based leadership, tending internship teams, and leading Internship Cluster retreats for the ELCA Regions 1 and 3.
We will miss her creative and innovative spirit, and wish her well as she embraces new vocations and adventures in the years to come! If you’d like to express your well wishes and thanks to Karen, please do so on this Google form.
All other well wishes regarding this transition may be sent directly to Karen at her Luther email address: kgieseke002@luthersem.edu prior to her final day, Friday, June 24.
