Do you play handbells, or have you ever wanted to play handbells? We need 8-10 handbell ringers to do some random ringing with the opening hymn during our Reformation Service on October 25. (Operative word is “random.”) Zero experience required—no music reading necessary—only a willingness to give it a try. Please let Arlene Flancher know at aflancher001@luthersem.edu. We’ll meet at 10:30 a.m. on October 25 and you’ll learn everything you need to know before playing in worship. I promise!

Collecting Warm Winter Outer Wear for Our Community
The dropping temperatures seem especially cold to our newest students unused to Minnesota’s quickly changing seasons. And, since most international students arrive from warm weather countries, they have no cold weather clothing to bring with them.
Thus, International Student and Scholar Affairs (ISSA) is collecting warm winter gear in good, usable condition for our international students. Along with winter coats, most needed are hats, scarves, gloves, mittens, boots, sweaters, and sweatshirts. Adult sizes only, specifically:
- Men’s medium (a few large and XL); boots sized 8-11/11.5
- Women’s medium (a few small and large); boots sized 8 or 10
You may bring your donations to Student Affairs in Bockman 249, or leave them in the tub outside the office. No additional clothing is being accepted at this time.
Remaining items will be distributed to our seminary community through the seminary Food Shelf. Any items not used will be donated locally to those in need.
Questions? Contact Alyssa Saleem, Bockman Head Resident, or Chenar Howard, ISSA Director. Thank you!
