Interfaith Community Service

Sponsored by the Office of Religious and Spiritual Life

in partnership with Habitat for Humanity

Please join us for one of our monthly interfaith builds!!

The details…

We meet on campus at 10:30am for a light breakfast and introductions.

Then we drive to a Habitat building site for 4 hours of volunteer work.

(Transportation to and from the building site is provided.)

Afterward, we return to campus for pizza and

an hour of structured interfaith dialogue.

No experience or special skills are required,

and you don’t need to be “religious”

All that’s required is a big heart, an open mind,

and a commitment to show up (on time!) and stay till the end

We’re hoping to have six monthly builds to choose from (usually on Sundays)

Fall 2017… September 24, October 22, November 19

Spring 2018 …February 25, March 25, April 22

10:30am-5:30pm, meals and snacks provided.
