North Park is announcing renovation plans for North Park Theological Seminary’s iconic campus home, Nyvall Hall, including refurbishing Olsson Lounge, along with the kitchen and its equipment.
The refurbishing will be funded by generous donors, along with University resources, as part of the recently launched campaign, Nyvall Hall: A Renewal.
“Choosing to revitalize our beloved Nyvall Hall demonstrates our commitment to good stewardship to restore this building to its full function as a center for learning, faith, and fellowship at North Park,” says Rev. Dr. David W. Kersten C’77 S’82 S’97, Seminary dean.
Built in 1947, Nyvall Hall is named for David Nyvall, North Park’s first president, who also served as Seminary dean and professor.
“Nyvall Hall is a vital center for educating future pastoral leaders for the Evangelical Covenant Church and for all Christian denominations. We are grateful to our donors who are dedicated to renewing and preserving this iconic facility, to honor its legacy, and ensure its future,” says Shena M. Keith, assistant vice president for advancement.
