Announcing the new GlobalServe Co-op

SeminaryAction has started its first co-op! GlobalServe Co-op is a six-person community located at 54th and Lake Park Ave. here in Hyde Park, Chicago. We have both U.S.-born and international students, (half are theology students, half from the university) and will move in at the end of August. Folks in the house come from a variety of faith backgrounds, and will devote time each month to a community service project as well as their shared household duties. We're grateful also for the help we've received from Seth and the staff at MAC apartments, who have shown us gracious hospitality as we've been getting organized, and we look forward to a great cooperative relationship with them in the future.

Our recruiting call generated particularly good interest from students at the University of Chicago, several of whom have spent significant time volunteering or studying overseas and are excited to work with our newly-arriving international students.

*We are also now accepting donations of gently used furniture and kitchen supplies, since some of our students are arriving with their suitcases only.
