AU’s Wackerlin Center for Faith and Action and Circle K Club sponsored an 11th annual spring Morning of Service from 9 a.m. to noon.

Volunteers–about 100 students and four professors with some spouses–performed indoor and outdoor community-service projects at sites in Aurora. Hosting volunteers were Marie Wilkinson Food Pantry community garden, 834 N. Highland Ave.; Mutual Ground domestic violence shelter, 418 Oak St.; Wayside Cross Ministries Hope Chest resale store, 36 N. Lincoln Ave.; and Phillips Park Zoo, 1000 Ray Moses Drive.

Activities opened with registration, refreshments and a group photo at the Hill Center for Student Success. With a sendoff from Rev. Mark Woolfington, campus chaplain and Wackerlin Center director, teams of students departed for their assignments.
