High Point University invites you to join in chapel & religious life

“Wednesday night Chapel at High Point University is one of our longstanding traditions. The services nourish our souls and feed our hearts. We at HPU are committed to building students from the inside out so that they live lives defined by significance as much as success. The spiritual life is foundational for that kind of life. We’re grateful for all the students and community volunteers who make religious life at High Point University a cornerstone to the High Point University experience.” —Dr. Nido Qubein, HPU President

Chapel services are held every Wednesday evening from 5:30 - 6:20 PM in Hayworth Chapel on the High Point University campus.

Some of the highlights for the year include:

October 12- Special Guest Speaker— Gena Thomas, HPU alumna and author of Smoldering Wick: Igniting Missions Work With Sustainable Practices, will serve as the guest speaker. She served as a missionary for four and a half years in northern Mexico and started a coffee shop ministry called El Búho. A special invitation will be given to students who participate in a service trip during Fall Break to be prayed for during this service.

November 30- Lessons & Carols Service — This special candlelight service is the final Chapel service of the fall semester, bringing the community together to remember and retell the Christmas story. The service will feature members of the university community reading scripture and music led by the Chapel Choir. The service is based on the traditional Festival of Lessons and Carols from King’s College, Cambridge, England. It will be held at 5:30 p.m. in Hayworth Chapel. January 16, 2017- 11:00 am | MLK Service — This annual service of worship celebrates the life and work of the late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Each year the service features noteworthy clergy and scholars from across the country.
