Worship
Calvin is a place where we seek God together as a community. That’s why each day, we take a break from the busyness of our lives to worship through scripture, song, and prayer in a variety of artistic and cultural expressions.
We invite you to join with us as we meet God and learn more about how he works in the world through us.Ìý
*Chapel is live at these times when classes are in session during each semester:
- Monday, Wednesday, Friday: 10:30 a.m. ET
- Tuesday, Thursday: 9:50 a.m. ET
Worship opportunities
Daily chapel
Chapel is offered each weekday, Monday, Wednesday, Friday from 10:30–10:50 a.m. and Tuesday, Thursday from 9:50–10:10 a.m., in the chapel sanctuary.Ìý
Each day features a different theme or style of worship, from focusing on God’s word to hearing the faith stories of people in the Calvin community. Join us on Fridays for a truly Calvin tradition—a packed-out songfest led by different student-led worship bands each week.
Chapel is broadcast live each day or you can visit the archives to watch anytime.
Dorm worship
Once a month you have the opportunity to gather with your dorm to worship together. Check your dorm calendar or connect with a Barnabas student in your dorm to find out more information.
LOFT
Every other Wednesday at 9 p.m., we gather for LOFT (living our faith together), a service where we dedicate our lives to Christ through praise, testimony, prayer and God’s word. Bring your friends to enjoyÌýlife-giving worship and great cookies afterwards!
Awakening
Awakening is a Korean student-led worship team at »Æ´óÏɸßÊÖÂÛ̳ that was founded in 2019. Awakening was founded by Korean students who desired a Korean style of worship, so that students could passionately praise and seek God in the language that they were comfortable in. Awakening continues to prepare a place of worship in Korean and contributes to the diverse worship within Calvin’s community. Throughout each semester, the team organizes 30-minute weekly prayer nights every Wednesday at 9:15PM in CFAC 115, and a worship night near the end of every semester.

The 7:9 Project
The 7:9 Project (read: seven nine project) is a group of multicultural students on campus that seeks to create spaces for multicultural and intercultural worship. Drawing on the vision of Revelation 7:9 ("from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb"), the team's mission is to foster a welcoming space for students to experience, learn about, and share different worship cultures that is firmly grounded in a Scriptural identity and prayer. Founded in the spring of 2023 by five students who were brought together by Professor Nate Glasper, 7:9 Project hosts an average of two worship nights each semester. 7:9 Project welcomes collaborations both on and off campus, and can be reached on InstagramÌý@7.9project.
