Hi everyone, this is your last chance to sign up to try cross country skiing tonight at 4:30. Those who have signed up will meet in the lobby of the OCC, then carpool to Theodore Wirth Regional Park, where we will pick up classic skis, learn basic technique together, and ski around for about two hours before heading back to Luther. If you’re meeting us at the park, please meet us at “The Trailhead” (which is a building) at Theodore Wirth park. Note the weather will be fairly warm (mid 40s), and we will keep warming up the longer we ski, so I personally recommend dressing in layers that you can remove if you get too hot. If you’re planning to come, please fill out this online form so that we don’t leave Luther Seminary without you. Email smaier001@luthersem.edu if you have any questions. See you all this afternoon!

To support students who may be facing food insecurity, Luther Seminary operates a direct-order grocery process for the seminary community. Luther Seminary’s Grocery Assistance Program is a lifeline for students facing food insecurity. Started during the pandemic, this vital program continues to provide essential groceries to an average of 25 students each week. Through the program, students can request necessary food items that are then carefully processed, purchased, and delivered to campus by dedicated volunteers. This initiative helps students meet their nutritional needs and fosters a sense of community and support within the seminary. Your generous donation will ensure that this program can continue to make a real difference in the lives of Luther Seminary students. On the Grocery Assistance Program webpage, you can make a one-time or recurring gift to support this important ministry.

For these remaining weeks of Lent—a period of preparation reflecting on Jesus’ crucifixion and resurrection—the Luther Seminary Library has prepared a spiritual guide with readings, daily prayers, thoughtful articles, and of course, rich books on the theology of the cross and resurrection.
