It’s time to pick your favorite song and brush up on your dancing skills. Community Life is bringing back the Lip Sync Battle. On January 20, from 5:30-7:30 in OCC dining hall, we will have a night of “singing” and dancing with our MCs for the evening, Morgan Simmons and Erik Nelson! And let us not forget our celebrity judges, Dr. Amy Marga and Crystal Zemlin! Dinner will be provided from La Tapatia. Come on by for delicious food, rocking music, and the dramatic battle of the evening!

If you have any questions, email community life (communitylife@luthersem.edu) or Anna Ferro (aferro001@luthersem.edu).

11 a.m. in the Chapel of the Incarnation or online. Dr. Marcus Simmons will lead us in prayer and song. Share your prayer requests.

New year, new intention: bring reusable silverware to lunch! Pick up your very own set of versatile recycled plastic utensils at the next community meal. Keep them with you for food on campus in an effort to cut down on waste and promote our love for Luther Seminary! Limit one per person.

Hey Luther! Join us for the “Eco-Faith Stuff Exchange!” Back this week by popular demand! 

Everyone is invited to participate in the Stuff Exchange! 

When: January 17–20

Where: Upstairs OCC in the ‘triangle area,’ across from the Cafe. Simply bring gently used items to contribute if you have them and take home items that you would use. It will be our own thrift shop–exchanging to prevent unnecessary purchases and waste. Bags and boxes to carry items home will be provided.

Items may include: clothing, books, small appliances, picture frames, video games, instruments–whatever! Please make sure items are clean (please wash before bringing clothes) and usable. Please no swimwear or undergarments. Leftover items will be donated Friday night after the last Intensive class.
