This morning for the last daily chapel of the semester, Augsburg students, faculty, and staff all gathered to assemble hygiene kits for Health Commons. These kits will be sent to Central Lutheran Church to be distributed to people experiencing homelessness in the wider community. Together over 200 kits were assembled! It was a great way to share God’s love with our neighbors and mark the end of the fall semester.
