Announcements

Hello, fellow graduates! We are continuing to prepare for graduation as it is getting ever closer. We want to have as many of you involved in this celebration as we are able, so I have an invitation for you. We are looking for graduates who are willing to record themselves speaking some parts for Baccalaureate and Commencement. If you are willing to participate in this, please sign up with your name and email address on the Baccalaureate/Commencement Video Sign Up. It would be great if you could sign up as soon as possible so we can send out the instructions early next week. If you have any questions, please comment below or email Jaime Benson at jbenson001cs@luthersem.edu. Thanks!

It’s Friday, so put on something comfortable and get ready to log into Zoom for Friday Morning Yoga!

Come join us to slow down, connect with your body, and be present with your fellow community members. All abilities and levels of experience are welcome, even if you’ve never tried any yoga before!

Class begins at 10:15 a.m. Central.

Use this Zoom link to join us. The passcode will be in the community announcements email.

Preacher: Melissa Johansen, M.Div. student
Be sure to join us in chapel at 11 a.m. Central as we support this fellow student of our community! The Zoom link will be included in the community announcements email.

All are welcome to join a group of Episcopal students for Noonday Prayer at 12 p.m. Central today. The service is short, only five to 10 minutes. We hope to do this more regularly.

The Zoom link will be included in the community announcements email. Visit “An Order of Service for Noonday” for the liturgy.

We are happy to announce our 13th annual Days of Defense, which will be held viz Zoom on Thursday, May 6, and Friday, May 7. These are the days when students in the M.A. professional degree programs–Leadership in Ministry, Christian Ministry, and Children, Youth, and Family–present their final capstone projects centered on a current issue in their concentration area.

Please join us for either or both days of learning and celebration! The Zoom link will be included in the community announcements email.

Hello, Graduating Seniors!

Congratulations to you! As you leave Luther Seminary and head into ministry, the Stewardship Leader Program team is excited to let you know about our new Financial Wellness offerings and want to be sure you have the opportunity to take advantage of them. They will remain open to you from now through the end of the summer.

Please sign up on the Financial Wellness Opportunities form for the offerings you are most interested in and we will send more information to you. Everything is free because of a generous grant from the Lilly Endowment.

Please contact Arlene Flancher (aflancher001@luthersem.edu) or Grace Pomroy, director of the Stewardship Leader Program (gpomroy001@luthersem.edu), with questions.
