The Spiritual Life ministries provide students opportunities for involvement through various inreach and outreach activities.

The inreach ministries are designed to serve our campus community through opportunities to connect in fellowship, worship, and prayer.

Outreach Ministries

The outreach ministries are designed to serve our surrounding community through acts of service to meet the physical and spiritual needs of our community.

The Upper Room

The Upper Room is led by one of the Co-Executive Officers of Spiritual Life and the Class Chaplains to create space for fellowship and worship. Students meet for weekly worship and devotions on Mondays at 9 p.m. in the Warming House.
