Thanks to everyone who made our first-ever off-site RFS experiment such a success! To our intrepid faculty and staff supporters, our generous hosts at Mount Olivet, our bus drivers, and, most of all, our students who arrived with so much grace, curiosity, and willingness to learn in a new setting—thank you! We learned a lot and are already thinking about how to use these lessons going forward. It was a privilege to be in community together, even in the midst of such a difficult time for the Twin Cities. If you received the follow-up survey link and have not already done so, please complete the survey when you are able. Your feedback matters.
With gratitude,
—Off-Site RFS Planning Team

In this devotion, Steven Nelson ’76 M.Div., wonders if, in our distracted culture, we can continue to listen to and feel Jesus’ presence in our life and in the world. Read today’s God Pause.

A friendly reminder from the HR team that Luther Seminary will be closed on Monday, January 19 in observance of MLK Day

Dangerous weather, safety threats, and other potential emergency situations can occur without warning any time of day and any season of the year. All members of the Luther Seminary community are urged to sign up for our text alert system to receive timely notifications of severe weather conditions and other urgent matters. Your subscription will last two years, and you should get a text from the system when it is time for you to renew.

In this devotion, Steven Nelson ’76 M.Div., reminds us that, though sin separates us from God, Jesus reconciles us to God. Read today’s God Pause.

Students, today at Mount Olivet—Thursday, January 15—we’ll have a photographer and videographer on site to capture visually some of shared community experiences in this exciting, off-campus space. You are encouraged to wear a Luther Seminary-branded shirt or other apparel on this day. Wearing something maroon and/or gray (but not branded) is great too. (Staff and faculty, you’re welcome to join in the fun too!)
