Luther Seminary FRIENDS
The Luther Seminary FRIENDS is a group of more than 200 people from Twin Cities
area congregations who support and minister to the
seminary through prayer, financial gifts, and as volunteers. Its governing
board meets six times a year.
Events
The FRIENDS sponsor three annual events:
Proceeds from these events, plus membership contributions, provide
scholarships to seminary students.
Scholarships
The FRIENDS of Luther Seminary have provided support to seminary students
since 1940. The FRIENDS Endowed Scholarship, formally established in 1988, is
awarded to two U.S. and two international students each year.
The purpose of the FRIENDS Endowed Scholarship fund is to give
financial support to students. The annual distribution from this fund is
to be awarded to deserving student(s) as determined by the Financial Aid
Office in accordance with policies and practices of Luther Seminary.
Be a
Volunteer!
In addition to financial support for students, the
FRIENDS volunteer on Wednesday and work on a variety of projects — everything
from stuffing envelopes and packets to making party favors. It's a great way
to stay involved with the seminary, and enjoy the cheerful company of good
friends.
