Each month will have a prayer focus. In September, please join us in praying for all students, faculty, and staff in these areas: education, music education, the Academic Resource Center, the Student Success Center, the dean of students, Residential Life, RAs and orientation staff, Counseling Services, and all first-year students.

Sanctuary on Wednesdays

Sanctuary is a casual service that takes place Wednesday nights. All are welcome to relax and center themselves around God’s word in the midst of their busy weeks.

Read with students for Hearthside Project

Read a book of your choice with up to three students in an informal environment as part of the Hearthside Project. How often you meet and the choice of book are up to you, though the text is strongly encouraged to relate to the key role of the humanities in contemporary thought.

 

Hearthside is sponsored by the Harry and Polly Slife Professorship in Humanities and the McCoy Family Distinguished Chair in Lutheran Heritage and Mission. If you would like to run a group or if you have questions, contact Dr. Zak Montgomery.
