Chapel and Religious Life

List of 6 items.

• Chapel

  Chapel is an important part of our weekly community rhythm. During the academic week, all students attend chapel once a week. On Sundays all boarding students attend an additional service. Our speakers range from faculty to students to outside guests.  
  

   

• Gathering

  On Fridays during open periods in the schedule, all students are welcome though not required to attend Middle School or Upper School Gathering. Led by the Christian Life Team, Gathering provides students opportunities to strengthen their faith through worship, prayer, testimonies, fellowship, and Bible reading.

   

• Bible Studies

  Each year there are a number of Bible studies offered on campus. Some are initiated and led by students and others by faculty.  Each dorm also provides opportunities for spiritual growth through discussion and prayer.

   

• Driven

  Our student-led, on-campus youth group, Driven, meets one night a week after dinner for a time of worship, prayer, and teaching. Every January, the Christian Life Team also plans an off-campus weekend “Driven Retreat” open to the whole student body.

   

• Dorm Prayer

  At the end of study hours (9:45pm) boarding students meet in their dorm lounge with the dorm parent on duty for a short time of announcements and prayer.   Once a week in place of dorm prayer student gather for a discussion based forum called. These discussions are student led conversation that encourages dialogue and reflection about important topics.

   

• Mission Trips

  Students are encouraged to put their faith into action by participating in domestic and international mission trips. Typically these are offered during spring break or shortly after school ends in June. Details are announced early in the fall semester.
