When dialing 911 using your seminary Zoom phone number from on-campus, emergency responders will automatically be provided your on-campus location. When dialing from off-campus, emergency responders will receive your location only if you individually configure a Zoom Phone Emergency Location on your Zoom account on a per Wi-Fi network basis. This process is quick and easy—see our Emergency Locations in Zoom document for full instructions. Once you configure an emergency location for a Wi-Fi network, it will be retained moving forward. Please reach out to helpdesk@luthersem.edu with any questions or for assistance with this.

The first non-European pontiff in nearly 1300 years died on Easter Monday at age 88.

His legacy as the ‘People’s Pope’ is featured in the recent book Pope Francis and Mercy.

Join us Thursday, April 24, 7-9 p.m. for a Brewery Night in the West Metro hosted by the student council rep for commuter students. This spring we are trying to have gatherings once a month out in the suburbs to make it easier for those of us that live a little bit further out from campus. This month we’ll gather at Luce Line Brewery in Plymouth for an evening of fun, fellowship, and food (food is on us, you have to buy your own alcohol). Everyone—students, faculty, staff—is welcome, especially those who love craft beer and/or live in the West Metro. Watch for future gatherings in other suburban communities. Questions? Contact Lauren (lmildahl001).
