Students, faculty, and staff—On Thursday, February 12, 9 a.m. in Bockman Hall 116, start your morning with our fifth “Brake Bread” event, where we gather around bread, jam, and coffee while building deeper community connections and celebrating a particular campus space—this time in Bockman Hall. We have LOTS of treats—some might even call it Fat Thursday, a proper kickoff to the Carnival weekend! Supported by an Endowment Lab Grant from Thrivent, these “Brake Bread” gatherings are intentional moments to build relationships, listen to one another, laugh together, and celebrate the good work and learning being done among us. Please join us in this holy space to love one another more deeply in a time of uncertainty. If you have questions, email Emily Rova-Hegener in Contextual Learning, erovahegener001@luthersem.edu.
