Campus Ministry


Faith and worship plays an important role in campus life. Whether you’re interested in bible study, spiritual renewal retreats, serving others on- and off-campus or learning more about spiritual life, Campus Ministry is open to every student, regardless of faith background.

Grace Chapel


A grand structure with arches that soar more than 53 feet above a tiled floor, Grace Chapel is a distinctive feature and a signature building on campus.

Because we are an institution of higher learning of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, our chapel embraces the worship style of the ELCA. However, we also honor the ecumenical traditions of other denominations.

Chapel services are every Wednesday at 10 a.m. in Grace Chapel, lasting about 30 minutes.
