Students Seek Moments for Reflection During Lent In March, our Chapel services continue the Lenten themes, and daily emails will offer Lenten meditations written by students and staff. Around campus, signage is posted with Lenten messages, reminders, and food for thought. Meditation stations with Lenten activities will be set up in the Chapel for those who are interested, to come by, during free moments of the day. Lent is a sober and serious time, but it is also hopeful. There is something about the season that often resonates deeply with our students. If you would like more information about Lent, please contact one of our chaplains: the Rev. Beth Holden or the Rev. Art Callaham. May your journey through Lent be meaningful! Prayers and Support - We hope that most of our families experienced the week of ice and power outages with little permanent damage. For those families or faculty/staff members who would appreciate prayers and support, we encourage you to submit requests here.
