Community Chapel

When: Tuesdays and Thursdays, 11-11:30 a.m.
Where: Seeley G. Mudd Chapel

This twice-weekly worship service allows the Whitworth community to gather together in an expression of our commitment to honor God, follow Christ, and serve humanity.  Each worship service is led by the campus ministry staff and student leaders as we draw upon all that has been given to us: the Bible, the two millennia of church tradition, the best of contemporary music, the spirituality of written prayers, the sharing of communion together, the power of liturgical symbols and dance, the joy of global music, and the witness of the worldwide Christian community.

Tuesday services are centered on the chapel theme for the semester and typically include two to three songs of praise, prayer, and a short sermon connected with the chapel theme. Every Thursday we gather around the table to celebrate the Lord’s Supper as we learn and grow in our various gifts and offer our lives to God through diverse worship styles. Services will be led by Whitworth University choirs and by sacred dancers and many other members of the Whitworth community.

Spring 2013

Relationships in Luke’s Gospel:  Who are all these people and why is Jesus hanging out with them?
Jesus seeks relationship and intentionally pursues friendships with those who are outsiders in order to welcome them into his surprising new community.  This spring join us as Beck Taylor, Roberta Wilburn (School of Education), Alan Mikkelson (Communication Studies), Mindy Smith, and Terry McGonigal help us to see who Jesus pursues, how he develops relationships, and what kind of community he creates.
