The Goals of Chapel:
The purpose of Belhaven's Chapel program is to bring together the entire campus in a shared
spiritually enriching hour which allows us collectively to be challenged to
explore the depths of God's truth and love.
Chapel Attendance Policy:
Chapel is held once a week in the Center for the Arts. All students who are not exempt from chapel are required to attend a minimum of twelve sessions each semester.
Why Chapel is Required:
Student attendance in Chapel is required because within our Christian
worldview, we believe that all teaching of truth must be built on a foundation of God's
truth. Thus, in the same way we require students to study the truth of physical
science, the arts, and literature, there is no contradiction in requiring students to
study God's truth. As the study of chemistry can not be completed from a textbook
alone, the study of God's truth also needs a "laboratory" for experiencing and
understanding, for it is not enough to study the Bible without having exposure to the
worship of God, and an opportunity to understand the relationship offered to us in Christ.
Students, the Chapel exemption form is available on the Chapel Information page.
