Field Trip to National Historic Landmark during Fall RFS 1 [In-Person]
Register for a trip to Christ Church Lutheran—in the Longfellow neighborhood of Minneapolis—on the morning of Sunday, September 20. This visit will include worship and a tour of the Eliel and Eero Saarinen-designed building that is credited with setting the standard for modernist churches built following World War II. Transportation from Luther Seminary will be available for those who would like to attend both worship and the tour. The tour is hosted by Luther Seminary archivist Caleb Rollins and members of the Christ Church Lutheran community. Please register by September 9. All are welcome!
Scribe Digital Documentation Lunch & Learn – Rescheduled [Hybrid]
Join colleagues and friends as we discover Scribe—a digital tool that helps capture your screen and create documentation. We have a few power users around campus and others who have some experience with the tool—everyone is attending to discuss and learn. Note that we won’t have a formal presentation but are just sharing wisdom. This is a Lunch & Learn crossed with a playday event. Bring your own lunch and join us in OCC 10 or on Zoom (link in email) on Wednesday, October 21 at noon.
Day of Remembrance for Indian Boarding Schools – September 30 [Hybrid]
Join Luther’s INVITE (integrating nonviolence into theological education) group on September 30 at noon in OCC 213 and on Zoom (link in email) as we remember the history of Indian Boarding Schools in the US. We will share a circle discussion and watch a brief video of survivors offering testimony. This is our first event of the new school year. If you are interested in learning more about nonviolence more generally, please join us!

Inside Luther News – Deadline for October Edition
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 October edition by Wednesday, September 9. 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.
