Incase you missed it, this weekend Luther hosted the Missional Church Consultation. Speakers and missional church folks from all over the country stopped in to teach, learn, and be in dialogue with one another. As a photographer for the communications department, I get to sneak into all the major events on campus whether I'm actually invited or not. I used my new video camera and ran into the event...here's a peek at what the consultation looked like.
Here are a few shots from the event, including the 13 wild turkeys that were sitting on their post ready to welcome people. (No, this is not where the seminary event planning $$ go...they showed up on their own)!!
