It hurts to see suffering, but Jesus calls us to not only see suffering but to know those who are suffering as neighbors. Read today’s God Pause.

Come celebrate the beginning of another year of learning, growth, and fellowship at our Back-to-School Block Party on Friday, September 16, 4-6 p.m., right before the first RFS session! We will be located by OCC. Food will be free and catered by Nelson’s Deli. Gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian, and vegan options are available. This will be a great opportunity to connect with new and old friends. Let’s start this school year well with friends, games, and free food!

Today we welcome Emily Rova-Hegener. Emily is an ELCA pastor who has served in a variety of ministry contexts (locally and globally) since graduating from Luther Seminary in 1999. Emily is joining the Contextual Learning Team and will serve as interim contextual learning associate for the coming year. Emily looks forward to journeying with many of our internship students (and their supervisors) and will bring her gifts in spiritual formation to their internship retreats in the fall and the spring (serving Region 1 and 3 of the ELCA).

Emily’s office is in Bockman Hall 242. Please stop by and say hello! Welcome, Emily!
