Faith at Work: From Sewer to Sky

God is at work in every part of our communities, and he calls Christians to join him in that work. Our guest speaker, Steve Wareham, has experienced this reality firsthand--from his work as a laborer at the Metropolitan Wastewater Treatment Plant to his leadership role as airport director of the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport. Steve will share what he has learned over the years about how God uses our everyday work, in blue-collar and white-collar settings alike, for the flourishing of the world.

We hope you can join us for this next Work with Purpose seminary community event: students, staff, and faculty are welcome. Lunch provided!
