Major: Nutritional Sciences
Hi! My name is Julia and I am a junior at UWM! I came to Corner House at the start of my freshman year. I joined Corner House because I was looking for a place to worship near UWM. Corner House is a place full of inclusive, compassionate, and welcoming people.
Majors: Religion and Philosophy Minor: Ancient Greek Studies
Hello! Thank you so much for visiting our campus ministry page. My name is Kamila Gutierrez, I am a junior at UWM and joined Corner House when I transferred to Milwaukee as a sophomore. I have been a part of Christian faith communities my entire life, and was looking to find an inclusive, welcoming environment that would allow me to continue to ask important questions about how my belief in God can contribute to a positive change in the oftentimes close-minded world we find ourselves in. Corner House proved to be that exact place. I'm so grateful to have found such an awesome community of young adults with whom to continue my faith journey with!
Major: Architecture
Hey hey! My name is Thomas! I’m a senior in the architecture program here at UW-Milwaukee. I came to the Corner House when I was a freshman and I am glad I have been able to call this place home. I have met so many people from a variety of different backgrounds and some of my closest friends have come from this community, all coming together with a common interest in the Christian faith.
Major: Pre-Law
Hello! My name is Jess and I’m a sophomore pre-law student at UWM. I was brought to Corner House as a plus one and found such a warm, lovely atmosphere. Since then, I’ve really enjoyed being a part of the faith community and look forward to being a peer minister this year!
