Fall Gathering TODAY!!

Plan to attend the annual Fall Gathering, October 2 from 3:30-5 p.m. We’ll be meeting in the Olson Campus Center Narthex to enjoy fall goodies and mingle and mix together as one: seminary faculty and professionals.

As custom, at 4 p.m. we will be introducing the newest faculty and professionals to everyone. This is our opportunity to greet and welcome the newest members to Luther Seminary.

We'll also be introducing the new SPOT members!

See you there! Fall Gathering Invite

Brown Bag lunch Friday, Oct. 13

Friday, October 13 will be the kick-off event of the new SPOT format. Instead of one day of enrichment, as we have done in the past, we will be having multiple speakers throughout the year.

Our first speaker is our very own seminary pastor, John Martin Mann. He'll be speaking with you, the seminary professionals, about his role at Luther for both students and professionals.

Please bring your lunch to Dining Room C around 11:30 a.m. We'll have some time of fellowship and lunch, then Pastor Mann will speak with time following for more conversation with him and others.

Meet Your Colleagues is coming

As we mentioned on the first webpage, we will be highlighting different departments of Luther Seminary as another way for you to meet and get to know fellow professionals. Watch for it soon!
