Religious Organizations
Many opportunities for worship, conversation, “hands on” ministry, lectures, retreats, conferences, and more are available to the Meredith community. Meredith’s chaplain serves as the advisor of the Meredith Christian Association, which welcomes students of all faiths and denominations, and the Interfaith Council, which guides and coordinates all religious organizations granted permission to form a campus organization.
The Meredith Christian Association provides numerous opportunities for the understanding, growth and expression of the Christian faith. The Meredith Christian Association encourages each student to become involved in local churches, and provides sources for finding the right church home-away-from-home. Students of all faiths and denominations are welcome to join weekly fellowships, worship services, local ministry projects, service projects, retreats, and the spring break mission trip. The Meredith Christian Association also provides information for numerous summer mission opportunities.
Meredith’s Interfaith Council promotes understanding and fellowship among the numerous religious groups on campus. The Interfaith Council is made up of the presidents from the following organizations: Meredith Christian Association, Campus Crusade for Christ, Catholic Community of Meredith College, Chi Alpha Christian Fellowship, Every Nation Campus Ministries, Muslim Student Association and InterVarsity Christian Fellowship. Other groups that may be in the process of organizing may be invited to join. Together, as a team, the Interfaith Council plans activities that promote fellowship and understanding among the different organizations on our campus.
