The 2027 ELCA Extravaganza is in Minneapolis from January 22–25, 2027. Luther Seminary students are provided two different ways to offset the costs of the event.

1. When you register use the coupon code: student_100 to save $100 dollars off registration.
2. Luther Seminary will reimburse up to $250 of registration fees or travel costs (including: hotel costs, airline/train tickets, and/or mileage). All reimbursements require fully itemized receipts. Please submit receipts using this form.

Questions about reimbursement can be directed to Sandy Olson. Questions about the Extravaganza? Email Jen Gruendler. We hope to see you at the E in 2027!

Check out this week’s blog post from Dean of the Chapel Steve Thomason—Reformation Day Celebration.

In this devotion, Mara Stillson ’24 M.A., reminds us that God’s love offers a promise for all people that is much greater than anything the world can possibly offer. Read today’s God Pause.

You can share the names of loved ones who have died in the last year on this form so we can remember them as a community.

November is National Native American Heritage Month. Read Luther Seminary’s land acknowledgement. For more resources and current news on Indigenous ministries, see the library’s guide to Native American Heritage and Indigenous Religions of North America.
