If you missed the 2024 Aus Memorial Lecture—Bonhoeffer, the Gospel, and the Other: A Bonhoeffer Salon—or would like to revisit it, a full recording of the event is now available.

Join Mary Hess on June 21 for a digital storytelling workshop centered on sharing stories of connection to and care for the Earth. You don’t need to have any skill with either telling stories, or using digital tech, but you need to bring your own device (smart phone, tablet, or laptop) and a desire to share a story from your own experience and to listen to others. Participants can gather at 8:30 a.m. for coffee, and the workshop will begin at 9 a.m., then work until lunch in small circles to share stories using specific prompts and dialogue rules. After lunch (provided) the workshop will turn to a “co-laboratory,” where help will be offered as you use your own devices to audio record a short story, and then to tweak it with photos, music, and so on. The workshop concludes by 3 p.m. Professor Hess is particularly interested in welcoming international students to this project. This workshop will be held in person, but a future workshop may happen online if there is sufficient interest. For more information, contact Mary Hess, mhess@luthersem.edu.

In this devotion, Joel Anderson ’80 M.Div., notes that Christ’s promises to us form our communities of faith. Read today’s God Pause.

Join us Wednesday, June 12 for worship, fellowship, a shared meal, and a chance to welcome alumni to campus. Just before lunch, we will gather on the front steps of Bockman Hall for a group photo of alumni, students, staff, faculty, and friends. You are encouraged to wear a Luther Seminary-branded shirt or other apparel on this day.

Our chapel is experiencing some tech issues due to some recent storms. We are unable to stream (among other issues!). Luther’s Office of Technology is working on the issue, and we hope to be back online as soon as possible.
