As you know, Jacob Fredrikson has moved to Oregon and will be ending his employment with Luther Seminary this this fall. The good news is that he will be working remotely for a period of time and will be on campus for RFS later this month. In the meantime, if you’d like to share a message with Jacob, we’ve set up a Kudoboard for that purpose.
