A Burglary at Örebro Theological Seminary
Tonight there was unfortunately another burglary at our seminary. We have had much problems with this during recent years. The burglars stole some computers including mine (although not my "research" Macintosh which I never leave at the office). They did leave some blood traces on my Brill tote bag from the SNTS, and a footprint on the first page of an article on textual criticism; I let the investigating police keep this external evidence.
Lord, please keep this seminary safe from burglaries and protect it in Jesus name. Please also see it grow and bless the students which come through its doors, as well as faculty.
ReplyDeleteSee it positive:
ReplyDeleteYou can buy a new computer!
Similar things happen here in Bremen, too. The thieves are either drug addicted who are looking for fast money or animal rights activists. The latter are more annoying, because they are painting their slogans all over the walls.
Task of the day:
Make a back-up copy!
Sorry to here this Tommy.
ReplyDeleteAt least we can be sure that the burglars were not textual critics (else the article would have been opened, or perhaps stolen to read later, not trodden on).
