The Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at the University of Saint Thomas has announced it is hosting the 2026 Institute on Theology and Disability, from June 15–17, 2026. They invite interested persons to join them in Saint Paul for three days of deep learning, community-building, and practice-based sharing. This unique conference brings together leading scholars, faith leaders, and community members—both disabled and non-disabled—to explore disability at the intersection of faith and theology. Discounts are offered for Luther Seminary staff and students: staff can attend the entire conference for $400, students for $250 (discount code LUTHERFULL). Daily rates for students are $125 for Monday and $75 for Tuesday and Wednesday (discount code LUTHERDAILY). Learn more and register here.

Want to share something in an upcoming edition of Inside Luther News, the seminary’s internal e-newsletter? Send your announcement to communic@luthersem.edu. Submit items for the June edition by Wednesday, May 13. Inside Luther News content is meant to be somewhat broader in scope—seasonal announcements, monthly reminders, stories about recent events or news of upcoming projects—than the daily Community Announcements posts and emails.
