Morning Devotions

The department also organizes morning devotions for students and faculty in the university ultra-modern auditorium before each day’s lectures begin. These devotions are led by faculty and student leaders.

Spiritual Formation

The chaplaincy organizes a week of prayer for students and faculty of the university. Such intimate meetings are typically characterized by a strong tradition of vibrant worship, intense prayers, and inspirational messages, to mention but a few. This is done at the early part of each semester to commit the entire semester into the hand of our creator
