Join Professor Thomason today—Thursday, June 27—at 11:00am CST. Sometimes there are no words for what and how we need to pray. Paul tells us in Romans that the Holy Spirit intercedes for us in groans that we cannot understand. Join this livestream as we conclude our June Journey in the Art of Prayer by exploring how contemplative art can be an excellent form of prayer beyond words. Learn more on the Art of Prayer page and join the session live on YouTube.

Seminary to Offer Graduate Fellowships
To enhance student learning and leadership formation outside of coursework, Luther Seminary is introducing graduate fellowships. Fellowships are co-curricular leadership development opportunities for small groups of students to explore focus topics and areas of ministry. Led by key staff and faculty, fellowships include learning from ministry practitioners, in-person retreats with other fellows, formal peer connecting, and experiential learning. Fellowships are resourced outside the Jubilee Scholarship. Next year, we will offer two fellowships: Beloved Community and Cultivating New Christian Communities.
- Beloved Community. As the Spirit transforms the world by empowering the proclamation of the gospel, we engage in this work by equipping future Christian public leaders who will work collaboratively against injustices and cultivate courage and sacrificial love in their communities.
Contact Samuel Zalanga, szalanga001@luthersem.edu - Cultivating New Christian Communities. As God invites the church to explore new expressions of Christian community, we are responding by gathering a cohort of students passionate about this work to explore how God might be calling them to participate.
Contact Jody Nyenhuis, jnyenhuis001@luthersem.edu
Additional information on each fellowship will be available soon. Interested students can get more information in the open advising session during summer RFS on Thursday, June 13 at 11:45 a.m in the OCC dining room.
