Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary understands the importance of feeding not just the mind but also the soul. The chapel ministry at Garrett-Evangelical provides opportunities to praise and worship God, to grow spiritually, and to learn together about the ministries of preaching and worship. Our Community Worship and Communal Prayer services are times where faculty, students, staff, and family members are together affirming that we are an authentic and prophetic community of faith.
Community Worship (In-Person & on Facebook @ChapeloftheUnnamedFaithful)
Wednesdays, 4-5pm Central Time during the Academic year
Our Community Worship service blends together a variety of worship styles and practices in a creative and dynamic worship language that allows for active participation, cooperation, in an action-reflection dynamic that enables us to learn from one another and learn to be and become with one another. It is in moments of intense communion, such as the ones experienced in worship, that we are able to engage boundaries of time, space, social narratives, and experiences to share that which makes us all vulnerably human, mysteriously graced, and blessed by the Spirit.
Our worship is necessarily changed by the pandemic and resulting restrictions, but our commitment to centering our common life on the Triune God has not. We anticipate that we will utilize more than one mode of worship both seizing the opportunity to be back in the Chapel of the Unnamed Faithful as well as attending to the digital liturgical space in which we have gathered for the past year. A key priority that is guiding our work is attending to the full inclusion of all members of the seminary community whether they choose to join worship online or in person.
