This grant program is designed to support Luther Seminary students, faculty, staff, and programs. All applications must align with Luther Seminary’s welcome, vision, and mission statements, and the project must benefit the Luther Seminary community. Total amount awarded will be up to $13,300 with a maximum single grant award of $4,000. Grant applications will be judged by the summer Money and Mission of the Church class as part of their education on endowments. Find out more and apply online. Grant applications must be received by August 3, and winners will be notified by the end of August. If you have any questions about the program or the application please email Grace Pomroy, Director of the Stewardship Leaders Program at gpomroy001@luthersem.edu.

Students, faculty, and staff are invited to join us Wednesday, August 6 for an opportunity to experience the agricultural rural gathering Farmfest in Morgan, in southwestern Minnesota. We will leave at 7 a.m. in a van whose cost is covered by rural ministry grants. Tickets for participants from the seminary will also be covered. Morgan is a few hours from campus. We will arrive at the fest around 9:30 a.m. This is an opportunity to learn about the economics, politics, and lifestyles of rural and small-town people in this part of the midwest. There is room for five people in the van. People in the surrounding areas might want to join us as well and meet up at the festival. Learn more on the Farmfest website. Reach out to Jon Anderson, janderson008@luthersem.edu, with any questions.
