Today, Wednesday, May 14, our service of Holy Communion will include a blessing and sending of interns, CPE students, sabbaticals, and new calls. If you fit in one of these categories, we would love for you to join us either in person or online for us to bless these next steps in your journey!

Looking for faith-inspired literature to provide a break from your studies? If you’re a lover of great fiction, be sure to check out Luther Seminary Library’s Online Guide to Literature and the Arts. We feature classic Christian authors from Dante Alighieri to Frederick Buechner, Flannery O’Connor, and Marilynne Robinson—with her new book “The Beauty of Souls“—and many more. With this guide, you will also find the latest books on art, culture, and film as they relate to Christian faith.
