Campus Ministries at Messiah University

Welcome to Campus Ministries at Messiah University! 

Our Mission

The Office of Campus Ministries creates opportunities for students to engage in meaningful Christian worship, discipleship, and spiritual formation.

Worship 

Encountering and responding to the revelation of the Triune God.

Discipleship

A commitment to learning and following the person and way of Jesus.

Spiritual Formation

The lifelong process of being transformed by the Holy Spirit into the image of Christ to the glory of God and for the sake of others.

Opportunities for students

Spiritual formation happens all over campus-- in the classroom, on the athletic field, in the art studio and in the residence halls-- but here are some common places students turn when they want to grow in their Christian faith.

Chapel

The Office of Campus Ministries hosts more than 40 unique chapel opportunities every semester. Chapel is the place where our campus community regularly gathers for worship through song, scripture, teaching, artistic expression, small groups and more.

Church

Messiah University is deeply committed to interacting with local churches in our community, and on-campus ministries are in no way designed to replace student involvement in local churches. We strongly encourage students toward involvement in the life of a local church, both while they are students and for the rest of the their lives. The campus ministries website maintains a directory of local churches, including many that provide shuttle service to and from campus.

Student Ministries

A variety of student-led ministries are available on campus, ranging from men's and women's life groups to Bible studies to prayer ministry. Student ministries provides opportunities for students to deepen their faith as they connect with one another and with God to gain mentored experience in Christian leadership.
