To support students who may be facing food insecurity, Luther Seminary operates a direct-order grocery process for the seminary community. Luther Seminary’s Grocery Assistance Program is a lifeline for students facing food insecurity. Started during the pandemic, this vital program continues to provide essential groceries to an average of 25 students each week. Through the program, students can request necessary food items that are then carefully processed, purchased, and delivered to campus by dedicated volunteers. This initiative helps students meet their nutritional needs and fosters a sense of community and support within the seminary. Your generous donation will ensure that this program can continue to make a real difference in the lives of Luther Seminary students. On the Grocery Assistance Program webpage, you can make a one-time or recurring gift to support this important ministry.

Join Steve Thomason, dean of the chapel, for a prayer vigil on Zoom (link in email) on Friday at 11 a.m. This space will be open to anyone in our local and distributed Luther Seminary community to gather for prayer and solidarity. Our city is experiencing extreme turmoil, as we are the epicenter of Operation Metro Surge. Let us gather together to lift up all our neighbors in prayer.
