UPPER HOUSE FELLOWS

Your place to ask the deeper questions about faith, your sense of vocation, and being a follower Jesus Christ in a complex and pluralistic world. Join other undergrad and graduate students for a free meal and conversation every other Monday night.

FRONT DESK

Want to study and volunteer? You can help create the welcoming atmosphere that you’ve come to enjoy during Upper House visits by volunteering for a one-time or regular 2-hour front desk shift. We love when volunteers help us bring a smiling face and welcoming presence to all who enter.

UPPER HOUSE INTERNS

A paid opportunity designed for undergraduate students’ professional and spiritual development. Interns work with the SLBF team in specialized roles to experience growth through service-driven leadership, healthy team building, and networking with local leaders.
