SUMMARY:Worship (M)
DESCRIPTION:Monday’s worship service is grounded in community and followed by a community meal. Each week of the month\, worship has its own flavor\, from testimony times and healing services to confession and forgiveness and Holy Communion. Music is led by members of the worshipping community. The Pastor for Community generally leads worship\, though some weeks there is a guest preacher or one of the other pastors may preach and lead worship. This service is held in the Great Room and has 25-40 participants who gather within the Monday community ministry flow. This service is not livestreamed. \n

SUMMARY:Monday Community Meal
DESCRIPTION:We gather every non-holiday Monday at 11:30 a.m. to eat lunch together. The meal is planned by our great kitchen staff and accomplished by our team of faithful volunteers. It is a meal served to folks at tables and we get a chance to enjoy some fellowship. Some folks come to lunch because it’s where they catch up with their friends\, some folks come to lunch because it’s good food for free and that helps them meet their basic needs in a dignified and loving way. \nLearn More

SUMMARY:Worship (Sa)
DESCRIPTION:Saturday evening worship is a contemplative communion service. Whichever pastor is preaching on Sunday\, preaches and leads worship on Saturday night. The service is guided by a contemplative sense: a slower pace\, room for silence\, and a simpler service order. The altar is on the main floor\, and much of the music is led from a piano within the gathered community. The service is generally about 45 minutes long\, with 40-50 people regularly gathering. After worship\, there is a social time with non-alcoholic beverages\, wine\, beer\, and finger food like cheese and crackers\, dip\, and sweets. \nJoin the Livestream

SUMMARY:Adult Forum
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, October 12\, 9:30 a.m.\n“Stories of Sabbatical”\nPlease join Pastor Melissa as she reflects on what it means to be “On the Way.” She spent most of her sabbatical traveling and tending relationships. There will be beautiful photos of the Iberian Peninsula and conversation about how it matters where we put our bodies while we tend to the gifts Christ has given to us. \nThe Sunday Adult Forums will begin on September 14 at 9:30 a.m. The forums will be grounded in conversations that align with Stories of Home. Throughout the year\, Central’s pastors and guest speakers will lead us in conversations about the essential spirit and nature of home in our churches and our culture. What does home mean to you? How are the images and realities of home captured in our theology\, our worship\, and our lives of faith? \nJoin the forums with a curiosity about how your faith and how your church have created the spirit of home for you.

SUMMARY:Health Commons
DESCRIPTION:The Augsburg Central Health Commons\nAnyone looking for diapers\, hygiene supplies\, one-on-one nurse consultations\, or just to have a place to sit and rest are welcome. Volunteers often spend time visiting with members of the community\, distributing donations\, and setting up the space. Faculty\, students\, and volunteers also provide basic care such as blood pressure checks or basic foot care. The hope is that the moments here can allow guests to address their health needs as they deem necessary\, and the work can lead to addressing health inequities and foster healing.
