The Service Club of Chicago was saddened and shocked by the events of Wednesday inside our nation’s Capitol. We offer our prayers for all of those who perished or were injured. We do not condone violence, destruction or illegal activities of any sort. For 131 years, The Service Club of Chicago has included members of all political affiliations, all creeds and colors. Our diversity is what makes our nation and our Club great. Any of our members who may have been present in Washington Wednesday do not in any way reflect the mission of our organization which is that “…no one is greater than the service she renders the world”.
