Office of the ChaplainsReligious Practice, Spiritual Wellbeing, and Interfaith Learning
An important part of your college experience is tending to your holistic wellbeing: spiritual, physical, intellectual, relational, and emotional. Though we specialize in the spiritual, our team in the Office of the Chaplains is here to support you as a whole person.
Spiritual Wellbeing Includes:
- developing and sustaining a connection to something larger than yourself
- For those coming from a Christian tradition, this includes developing or sustaining a relationship to God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit
- For others this could mean developing a connection to another deity(s) or religious leader, sacred texts, ethical values, the natural world, community, etc.
- making meaning and finding a sense of purpose in your life
- engaging in practices that help you be fully present to your authentic self and to others
We can help...
Connect
- with peers who share your spiritual or religious identity
- with peers from different spiritual and religious backgrounds
- with other resources on campus for various facets of wellbeing
Support
- your wellbeing through individual appointments with a chaplain
- your spiritual exploration and specific religious practices and holidays
- your use of the Multifaith Center, Christ Chapel, and other gathering spaces on campus
Develop
- learn how to discover and reflect on your sense of meaning and purpose
- learn interfaith leadership skills to build bridges between people who hold diverse identities (religious, spiritual, racial, cultural, etc)
- learn practices and habits to enhance your spiritual wellbeing
