Faculty and staff are encouraged to join us Thursday, October 31 for our first annual Reformation Run/Walk/Roll! Come in costume or not—everyone is welcome. Please bring a Halloween or Reformation themed dessert to share after Lunch Church. We will meet at 10:30 a.m. in front of the steps of Bockman Hall for a greeting and then head out. You can run, walk, bike, or amble on a preplanned route (see below). Turn around at any point or circle more than once—whatever you desire! Join us back in Olson Campus Center Dining Room for a fun Lunch Church at 11:00 a.m. with a Halloween-themed meal provided by our caterer Sam. Dr. Thomason will lead a playful spiritual practice during/after lunch. Then we will sample the treats people have brought. Prizes may or may not be had! We hope you can join us.
