The Luther Seminary Choir will meet from 12-1 p.m. today after chapel.

Luther staff are invited to one of two upcoming spaces to hold conversation with one another about the relocation of the seminary. This is not a program-oriented conversation nor one that has in view any logistical, architectural, or real estate decisions. It is a conversation space to process what we’re holding—personally and as a community—as we approach the move. Likely, many of us are experiencing everything from deep grief to hopeful anticipation, often intermingled and with a lot in between. We invite you to bring all of this into a spacious conversation with one another. There are two opportunities, and you are invited to choose one to attend:
Tuesday, March 24 – 12 p.m. In-Person Only, lunch provided, OCC Dining Room
Tuesday, April 7 at 12 p.m. Zoom Only (link to come)
We want to be able to speak with one another in a face-to-face way, so we are holding these conversations in one modality at a time. Choose which one works best for you. Chris Jacobsen (cjacobsen003@luthersem.edu) and Cody Sanders (csanders001@luthersem.edu), both members of the Future Space Working Group, will be holding this space and helping to facilitate conversation. If you have questions, please contact them.

Want to share something in an upcoming edition of Inside Luther News, the seminary’s internal e-newsletter? Send your announcement to communic@luthersem.edu. Submit items for the April edition by Wednesday, March 11. Inside Luther News content is meant to be somewhat broader in scope—seasonal announcements, monthly reminders, stories about recent events or news of upcoming projects—than the daily Community Announcements posts and emails.
