In this arts lunch, we will look at Minnesota and broader U.S. funding opportunities for personal and organizational arts initiatives. This practical arts lunch will help equip students and alumni with the tools to bring their artistic dreams to life. We will also discuss work/life balance for artists and arts ministries, and the relationship between labor, society, and the arts. This casual workshop is for anyone who is an artist, has an arts ministry, or who plans to work with artists in their church, chaplaincy, or nonprofit contexts.

Meeting professional spiritual leaders in your field while you are in seminary can provide important insight and direction. As you discern your career options, developing a network of future colleagues expands your reach and options. It’s never too early to start! Real World Connections!

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.

If you have anyone in your heart for whom you would like to request a prayer, please use this form before 7 p.m. on the Tuesday before the session to submit your request. Prayer requests will be accepted on a first-requested, first-offered basis until capacity (still being determined) is met for our available time. Please be brief in the wording of your requests. Please contact Scott Campbell for more information.

With 60 percent of our students spread out around the country,  building community beyond the classroom can be challenging. Stop by to see who’s here, in an open zoom room for conversation, humor and colleagueship.  Bring a cup of tea, an experience, a question, a poem to share, or find out what life is like for a seminary colleague in a part of the country you are curious about. Get to know some amazing seminary humans. Pop in whenever the room will be open

Members of the United community are invited to join The Ministry Lab’s Midweek Retreat every Wednesday at 12:00 p.m. 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 Rev. Emily Meyer: ministrylab@unitedseminary.edu.
