University Ministries: Gathering Together

Chapel

Chapels are creative, multi-traditional worship services with speakers from the SPU campus and around the world. Most Chapel services take place on Tuesday mornings at 9:30 a.m., unless otherwise noted.

We also offer "Night of Worship" services on some Sunday evenings, featuring speakers and worship leaders from a variety of local churches. Unless otherwise noted, all Chapel and Night of Worship services will take place in the sanctuary of First Free Methodist Church, adjacent to the SPU campus.

The Chapel team is also pleased to announce a new worship opportunity called EXHALE. EXHALE is an evening in which you will be able to express your praise, frustration, adoration and thanksgiving to our God through the media of paint, charcoal and pastels (materials provided). The next EXHALE event will take place on Thursday, May 22, from 7-10pm in Art Center room 4.

For more information about any Chapel-related events, please contact the OUM/CFW Helpdesk at um@spu.edu or 206-281-2966.
