University Worship [Corrected]

The guest preacher for this service is the Rev. Dr. Preston Davis, a Duke Divinity alumnus and vice president and minister to the university at High Point University. He will preach a sermon titled The God Who Haunts Us. For our Mission of the Month, a representative from Urban Ministries of Durham will present the group's mission to end homelessness and to fight poverty by offering food, shelter, and a future to neighbors in need.

Join us in worship that offers stirring preaching, inspiring sacred music, and faithful prayer. Held year-round amid the beautiful, soaring architecture of Duke Chapel, this interdenominational Christian service is characterized by vibrant faith, intellectual depth, diverse cultural expressions, and a welcoming community.
