Announcements

Admissions is excited to welcome prospective students to campus this weekend. The entire Luther Seminary community is invited to worship on Saturday, September 27 at 10:45 a.m. in the chapel—we hope to see you there. Keep these prospective students in your prayers as they enter into this space of discernment.

Beginning Monday September 22, Operations is relocating all tools and and equipment from our lower maintenance garage into the white and brown utility garages along Branston Avenue on the upper campus. By September 26 these garages will be secured and accessible to operations staff only. Please remove any and all personal items—including bicycles and vehicles—from inside these garages at your earliest convenience and by September 26 at the latest. Any items remaining after this date will be disposed of.

In this devotion, Brooke (Apple) Phelps ’16 M.Div., wonders how we value the work and lives of one another and how God values each of us. Read today’s God Pause.

Students, your safety and the safety of our entire campus community is our highest priority. To ensure everyone—especially residential students—has the opportunity to participate fully, the upcoming safety training has been rescheduled:
When. Thursday, September 25, 4-5 p.m.
Where. OCC Dining Rooms A-B
We made this change after realizing that many of you would have had class conflicts on the earlier date and might have missed a significant portion of the training. By moving it, we hope to ensure that every residential student can benefit from this vital session. This training provides practical safety procedures and clear guidelines that could make a real difference in protecting lives during unexpected events. Attendance remains mandatory for all residential students, as this is not only about your personal safety but also about safeguarding our entire community. Food will be provided during the session. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. Your presence matters, together, we can build a safer and stronger campus. We look forward to seeing you there.

In this devotion, Brooke (Apple) Phelps ’16 M.Div., prays that God would give us strength to live out the commitments made in our baptism and the strength to love one another. Read today’s God Pause.
