The Intersections of Faith and Learning | Pfeiffer Chapel

The chapel offers:
- Worship and fellowship with other students through regular services and private reflection in a welcoming environment.
- A religious life staff who offers counsel, inspiration, and direction.
- The perfect setting for beautiful weddings.
