You are invited to help us honor the life and work of renowned theologian Joseph Sittler. We hope you can be part of an informal gathering on Saturday, June 28 at Minnehaha Regional Park at 1:00 p.m. central. The event was originally scheduled last fall and postponed for better weather and more participation. The gathering will take place a mile downstream from Minnehaha Falls, at a new park bench installed in Sittler’s honor, near where Minnehaha Creek meets the Mississippi River. This scenic location was chosen to reflect Sittler’s belief that “nature is a theater of Grace.” Stewart Herman, visiting fellow at the Christensen Center on Vocation at Augsburg College and retired faculty of religion at Concordia College–Moorhead, is organizing the event and shares: “God’s Word is active in nature, which to the eyes of faith can be seen when the Minnehaha rushes to the Mississippi. We gather to honor Joseph Sittler’s path-breaking incorporation of ecology into Lutheran theology by sharing, individually, our favorite ideas from his work. Bring your favorite quote!” For more information, reach out to Dr. Herman at herman@cord.edu​.
