Religious Life
In its relationship to the Board of Higher Education and Ministry of the United Methodist Church, Bethune-Cookman University has a great and cherished religious tradition. The religious outreach of the University is ecumenical, and the Religious Life Fellowship, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, chaired by the University’s Chaplain, are comprised of student faculty, and staff members from a wide variety of religious denominations.
The Office of the University’s Chaplain is open to all who have need for spiritual counseling and guidance. This office also serves as the center for religious activities, as it coordinates and promotes programs of spiritual enrichment on the campus.
Religious activities include bible study, annual spiritual outreach celebrations, midweek prayer services, outdoor celebration services and spiritual awareness sessions in the dormitories. The University employs a full-time ordained chaplain to administer these activities.
