Invested Citizens: Rising Up to Build Together

We will draw inspiration from the book of Nehemiah in order to learn how to come together as a community to build towards the purposes that God has called us to. Each member of our community - students, faculty, staff, parents, alumni, etc. - plays a vital role in this collective effort. Together, we aim to create an environment where academics, the arts, athletics, and service are a part of our spiritual growth and development. During our chapel gatherings, we hope to turn our attention to Christ and learn from Scripture how we can invest our lives in the spaces and places God has located us. 

Our theme verse this year is Nehemiah 2:18b. It states, “And they said, ‘Let us rise up and build.’ So they strengthened their hands for the good work.”

May God attend our prayerful efforts to rise up and build for His purposes this year.
