Who We Are

WHO WE ARE

Supporting diverse spiritual journeys, the Chaplain's Office is committed to:

  • Providing spiritual care and pastoral support. The chaplain offers guidance and/or spiritual support through one-on-one or small group conversations about a range of topics. Topics include faith, deepening spiritually, grief and loss, belonging, big questions, purpose, making-meaning, discernment, identity, relationships, sexuality, conflict, important life decisions and more. 
  • Supporting the spiritual growth of people of all beliefs or no beliefs. We provide opportunities and resources for persons to engage in various spiritual practices and reflection in times of crisis, celebration or spiritual exploration. 
  • Interfaith engagement and spiritual/religious pluralism by providing opportunities for constructive communication and partnerships between spiritually/religiously diverse communities. 
  • Supporting the campus community during crises, joyful celebrations and campus traditions. Examples include baptisms, weddings, vigils, memorial services, meditations, times of reflection, worship services, mediations, restorative circles, holding space gatherings, concerts, convocations, commencements, etc.
