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 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.
Thank you!
Last Monday's Fall Gathering was a great success! The new professionals
and faculty were introduced to the community and many enjoyed food and
conversation during the afternoon event.
Here are the new faculty members are Amy Marga, Systematics, and
Kathryn Schifferdecker, Old Testament.
The new professionals are (back row) Ted Wilder, IT; Dave McCall,
Maintenance; John Kilbride, Development. (middle row) Laura Kaslow,
Communications; Nancy Lee Gauche, Children, Youth and Family; John Mann,
Seminary Pastor; Bob Colbert, Business Office; Jo Quanbeck, Center for
Biblical Preaching. (front row) Kathryn Ostlie-Olson, Contextual
Leadership Initiative; Katie Dahl, GMI; Becky Anderson, Wee Care;

Kunau, Communications; and Chenar Howard, GMI.
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!

Today's Quote
Are there seasons in heaven?
In God's anteroom are there windows
that look out on trees like these -
each leaf a note for the brass
ensemble of autumn -
the dry ones castanets
clicking: October, October.
Can heaven itself be golden
enough to rival all this?
