Office of Spiritual Life
The Office of Spiritual Life promotes the Mission of the College through service, social justice awareness, community and opportunities for enhancing ones spiritual life. It consists of the offices of Campus Ministry, Community Service, and Mission Experience. Campus Ministry is located in the Hubbard Interfaith Sanctuary and is dedicated to promoting the personal and spiritual growth of the campus community. Celebrating and acknowledging our multi-faith and multi-belief and also rooted in the Roman Catholic tradition, Campus Ministry provides interfaith and ecumenical programs of prayer, liturgy and celebration to invite the spiritual growth of people of different faiths. It oversees an interfaith student organization as well as student groups specific to particular religious traditions. In addition, Campus Ministry offers weekly programs, yearly retreats, volunteer opportunities, workshops, and individual spiritual direction for students who wish to develop their spiritual lives and create community with others. In addition, the Hubbard Interfaith Sanctuary itself is available as a place of hospitality and quiet reflection for those who need a break in the middle of their busy days on campus.
The Offices of Community Service and Mission Experience are located at 451 Western Avenue. Community Service encourages and supports involvement in community outreach and service programs. A large network of local agencies provides students with ample opportunities for service which might involve a few hours or one day, a weekly or monthly commitment, or any one of our service trips where students travel off-campus for a week or more. The Office of Mission Experience develops opportunities for student leadership and for international service.
People of all religious beliefs and traditions are welcome to make our community at the College rich in spiritual insight and experience. All are encouraged to work for justice and peace.
