Worship

Worship is central to the life of the seminary. Common praise of God in Word and Sacrament gives life to Christian community. Through worship, we celebrate our Christian faith. Most of all, we give thanks to God and nurture the spirituality needed for authentic personal and institutional life and witness to the Gospel.

All-school worship takes place Tuesday, Wednesday at 11:20 a.m., in the Samuel Colgate Memorial Chapel. Morning classes take a break so students and faculty may attend during this time.

All-school worship is coordinated by the divinity school's worship committee in conjunction with denominational caucuses and the Black Student Caucus. Services express the treasures of a specific ecclesial tradition, while at the same time extending hospitality to all members of the school community. Through the experience of integrating many denominations into its community life, the school has affirmed its commitment both to nurture the integrity of particular traditions and to engage ecumenical forms of worship.
