Central House Residential Volunteers

We are currently seeking expressions of interest from people interested in joining our Residential Community in 2012. The residential community contributes significantly to the work and shared community that exists in and around Credo Café. Residents also gain exposure to public advocacy, street work, hospitality and community building aspects of Urban Seed. Members of the community are 21 years or over and commit to a year during which they contribute at least 3 days a week to the ‘street and hospitality’ work of Urban Seed, in return for accommodation. Married couples and mature-aged people are very welcome to apply.
Opportunities for living in and learning with the current residential community for this year are as follows:

LIVE-IN WEEK: A week long experience to simply come and do what the residents do! Help host Credo lunches, get involved with our creative art or writing groups and cricket team. Get to know the Credo and Urban Seed community and more!
Dates for this are:
Monday 11th-Friday 15th April
Monday 4th-Friday 8th July
Monday 14th-Friday 18th November

MISSION EXPOSURE WEEK: A week to come along to some seminars looking at different aspects of Urban Mission, get involved with some of Urban Seed's work and hang out with the residential community. This is a more intentional learning opportunity.
Dates for this are:
Thursday 14 July-Wednesday 20 July: Seeds exposure - a broader exposure to all of the communities around Victoria that Urban seed works in. A travelling mission extravaganza visiting Norlane in Geelong, Long Gully in Bendigo, Footscray and the CBD.
September 24 - 30 City Mission Exposure - Mission Exposure with a focus on the Melbourne CBD.

For more information about either of these opportunities please contact Stephen Said or you can call the office on (03) 9650 4023.
