All are invited to a shared Contemplative Gathering every Wednesday morning to gather together in silence and sit in communal contemplation. This is an opportunity to find grounding in the moment, and to share in that grounding energy with similarly self-directed explorers. The last ten minutes of the session are devoted to sharing aloud prayers that have been submitted during the week. Please use this form to submit your prayer request.

See this week’s Monday Morning for the Zoom meeting link and who to contact for more information.

Members of the United community are invited to join The Ministry Lab’s Midweek Retreat every Wednesday at 12 PM CST. Take a half an hour each week to be present with God, your Self, and others. Develop your personal practice and discover how deepened awareness and greater emotional and spiritual balance enable you to engage more fully, creatively and energetically in the essential work of God’s Beloved Community. To learn more or to get on the weekly reminder email, contact Emily Meyer (’09): ministrylab@unitedseminary.edu.

Every Wednesday – 12 noon to 1:00 PM CT

You imagine yourself in a ministry, but you can’t quite visualize it. You think you understand what the job market is like for chaplains, but you are uncertain what path will fit your particular needs. Come meet with your future colleagues from around the nation, make connections, and ask practical direct questions about your future career paths.

Dean Kyle Roberts invites you to our next regularly scheduled “Student/Faculty Conversation” Friday, Oct. 8, from 1:00-2:00 PM CT. Our topic for conversation will be, “How can United better serve our various constituents around issues of public concern?” In order to increase the number of contributors to the discussion and to increase the diversity of perspectives included, the faculty would like to limit the number of questions/comments to two per participant. We hope that this will encourage greater attendance and create an expectation for everyone who would like to contribute to be able to do so. I hope to see many of you there!
