Religious Life Groups
In partnership with the Division of Student Affairs, Duke Chapel convenes, supports, and advocates for all officially recognized Religious Life groups on campus that serve students.
See a list of Chapel ministers who support students as part of their ministry.
The Religious Life team of clergy, chaplains, and administrators welcome new students during Orientation Week and offer events throughout the year, including weekly worship opportunities and special events. Religious Life groups, and the students participating in them, may apply for grants from the Chapel to support specific programming or advance the group’s mission and goals.
In addition to the Religious Life groups listed below, the Chapel sponsors two affiliate groups: the Congregation at Duke Chapel and the Center for Christianity and Scholarship.
Alongside the Religious Life and affiliate groups, the Chapel's Student Ministries programs provide opportunities for students to hear and respond to God's call for their lives on campus, in Durham, and beyond through study, artistic expression, counsel, service, and community.
