Show moreDoes Preaching Matter? More Than Ever submitted by dames@augsburg.edu Rev. Dr. David Lose, Senior Pastor, Mount Olivet Lutheran Church Former President of Lutheran Theological Seminary, Philadelphia Author of “Making Sense” series of books Augsburg University Campus Ministry invites you to join us via Zoom on Tuesday, March 9, at 10:30 am as Augsburg University welcomes Pastor Lose for the fourth annual Fosdick Lecture on Preaching. Amid a pandemic, economic and ecological crisis, painful reminder of racial justice, and a period of drastic political polarization, one may wonder whether or not the preaching of the church matters. Fair question. Yet at the same time, preaching the love, justice, and mercy of God has never mattered more. Preaching matters because it reminds us that the challenges of the day, while urgent, are neither the only nor ultimate realities with which we live. It matters because in the proclamation of the Gospel we are reminded of our primary identity as God’s beloved children. And it matters because a central component of the Gospel is the promise that the future is in God’s hands. Come, join the conversation! Tuesday, March 9 10:30 am Welcome, Lecture and Q&A 11:30 am Chapel Worship (via Zoom) Via Zoom from Hoversten Chapel https://augsburg.zoom.us/j/95460363994 ?pwd=S 11ISdksOT1cvcem96ZDNTRTImYndUUT09 httos:/Awww.augsburg.edu/campusministry/fosdick/ March 4, 2021 , I@ Email a correction for this post Chapel: Prayer Around the Cross submitted by dames@augsburg.edu You are invited to chapel at 11:30 am in-person in Hoversten Chapel or via Zoom for a Lenten worship service of Prayer Around the Cross with Pastors Babette Chatman and Justin Lind-Ayres and musician Tom Witt. https://augsburg.zoom.us/j/95460363994 ?pwd=S 11ISdksOT1cvcem96ZDNTRTImYndUUT09 March 4, 2021 , I= Email a correction for this post TONIGHT Music Therapy Club Guitar Help Night submitted by springfa@augsburg.edu Come join the music therapy club board on March fourth from 7-8pm for a guitar help night!

The program is designed to provide intentional community for LGBTQIA+ students to experience nature — and specifically the Boundary Waters Canoe Area (BWCA.) When thinking about communities and identities safe and welcome to share outdoor spaces, LGBTQIA+ communities are often not included in that equation. This pilot program is offering the opportunity for LGBTQI+ students to experience and engage in learning that doesn't involve a ‘classroom.’ Because queer and trans+ communities haven't historically been welcome in outdoor spaces, to engage in learning that doesn't uphold the lens of ‘traditional education, this program is offering queer ways of knowing. Being modeled from adrienne mareen brown's book, Emergent Strategy, this program looks to biomimicry to better understand how queer movement can model nature to find ways of cooperative and collective action — resulting in queer liberation. This trip will be led by Director, LGBTQIA+ Services — Max Poessnecker & an LGBTQIA+ identified Wilderness Canoe Base staff member. This trip requires ZERO experience in the outdoors, canoeing, or BWCA. Part of the goals of this pilot program are to create exposure, access, and dismantle gatekeeping to outdoor spaces upheld by racism, queerphobia, and capitalism. Interested? LGBTQIA+ Student Services will be holding two info sessions to learn more about this exciting opportunity.

The program will be offered May 17 — May 28. Students will be able to receive 2 credits and fulfill the Augsburg Experience requirement OR they can take it only to fulfill the Augsburg Experience. The cost of the program is being supported by scholarships from CGEE, the Pan-Afrikan Center, and Augsburg University; therefore, we are able to offer it at a reduced price. Program participants will critically analyze the global racial unrest movements of the Southern Africa Anti- Apartheid system, and the racially motivated murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis. Albertina Shifotoka, Program Director of CGEE Namibia, and Azania Tripp, Director of the Pan-Afrikan Center, will facilitate a 2- week program experience that will introduce students to the understanding of how these movements became historical events and impacted policy and the visibilities on racial inequities that impact the Pan- Afrikan diaspora and all BIPOC communities. The program will be offered from May 17 — May 28, 2021 and the deadline for applying is Thurs, March 25.
