Chapel and Convocation
Chapel, Convocation, and Service (CCS) are important, essential ways of
partially fulfilling the core values of the college: educating persons to be
intellectually proficient and disciplined, spiritually astute and mature,
vocationally focused and adaptive, socially confident and compassionate, life
long learners, and transformers of culture.
Convocation
Convocation is an intellectual forum for the presentation of ideas that should
challenge our way of thinking about and perceiving the major issues of our
culture and world. Diverse points of view are welcomed, invited, and sought.

Convocations will take place in venues appropriate to the event and program,
for example, the Student Center Complex, First Presbyterian Church, FAB,
Memorial Chapel, White Hall Auditorium, 10:30 – 11:10 AM, Mondays, or at other
announced times.
Chapel
Chapel is a worship service that involves the whole person, body, mind, soul and
spirit. Worship comes from inside each individual and cannot be forced from
outside. The chapel space, worship format, and the act of worship itself should
speak of the excellence and dignity of the God we worship. All who come to
worship are asked to conduct themselves in a way that shows respect for the
space they are in, the persons they are worshipping with, and the God they love
and serve.
Chapel will be held in Memorial Chapel, 10:30 – 11:10 AM, Wednesdays.
Service
Service and mission projects are a means of reaching beyond ourselves to the
greater community (locally, nationally, and internationally) with the love and
compassion of God.
Special Sunday Services
Worship services are held on a few Sundays in conjunction with special campus activities, such as Orientation Weekend, Family Weekend, and Dogwood Weekend. Students often participate in planning and leading these special services.
