In this devotion, Deborah Jorgens ’19 M.A., wonders it is even possible to return to God what we’ve already been given. Read today’s God Pause.

We gather at 11:00 a.m. CT in the OCC Dining Room for Lunch Church. Come share in a meal and community conversation as we dive more deeply into this week’s text: Exodus 16:1-15. Lunch is provided.
Share your prayer requests.

Students, ready to represent Luther Seminary wherever you go? Whether you’re looking for a cozy hoodie for study sessions or a classic tee for everyday wear, we’ve got you covered. Head over to Old Lutheran to check out the official Luther Seminary collection. The online store is open now through Friday, October 23. Place your order today, and your items will be shipped in November. Treat yourself and show off your Luther pride. Order your gear online.

Join us next June 5-12, 2027, for a course-credit study trip to the United Kingdom. British society is increasingly post-Christian, and we will focus on the rich ‘mixed ecology’ of church planting and fresh expressions created within multiple levels of the Church of England and other denominations.
Apply early by completing the course application form.

• Submit your application by October 31, as there are limited spaces available. 
• Note: this class overlaps with Summer RFS, so students interested in both will have to choose one or the other. 

For more information, contact Dwight Zscheile, dzscheile001@luthersem.edu, or Jennifer Rowdon, jrowdon002@luthersem.edu.

Do you have a prayer or hymn that is meaningful to your faith? A prayerbook is being created by and for the Luther Seminary community, and we want your suggestions. Please email prayers or hymns to aaakre002@luthersem.edu with the subject line “prayer.” We’re not able to take original compositions—only existing texts. Please include whatever information you have about copyright to the text you’re submitting. Search through hymnals, wallets, and prayerbooks for those beloved words that aided you, so they might now aid others.
