SUMMARY:Urban Servant Corps Information Session
DESCRIPTION:A place to belong. A welcoming and affirming community. An opportunity to serve. If these values are important to you\, consider joining the Urban Servant Corps (USC) community in Denver\, CO. \nAt USC\, we believe that service is transformational — it creates the opportunity for shared humanity and to faithfully respond to one another’s needs. We also believe that in community\, we are able to live more faithful\, simple lives that are in service to one another. Our full-time volunteers live in an intentional community house in downtown Denver with others who are committed to social justice\, racial justice\, and accompanying vulnerable populations. Food\, housing\, health insurance\, a monthly stipend\, student loan debt reduction (up to $7000) and an annual “growth and development” allotment are provided. Additionally\, Spiritual Direction\, alumni mentorship\, and professional development opportunities are offered as part of this experience. \n\n\nAre you dedicated to social justice and feel a call to respond to the needs of our neighbors? Are you someone who hopes to explore or deepen your faith? Are you seeking experience in the non-profit/social service field? Learn more and apply: www.urbanservantcorps.org \n\nInformation Session \nUSC will host an informal information session on February 26 at 2:00pm ET via Zoom. \nJoin Zoom Meeting \nMeeting ID: 989 209 1856\nPasscode: 1ah7Vw
