New Online Version of Global Vision!
 The
Spring
2009 issue of Global Vision is the first issue launched in an electronic
version. We encourage you to
sign up
to receive our free, bi-annual newsletter in this new format. It is our goal
to be able to more readily connect with students, alums and friends
in the states and around the globe.
Moving in the direction of an online newsletter will also allow the GMI to be good stewards of our
resources.
Along with good stewardship, an electronic
edition of Global Vision will allow readers to be more connected to
additional resources and updates from the GMI and Luther Seminary.
