With roots in the Church of the Brethren, Manchester University is committed to sustaining a community of faith, learning, and service. Religious life on campus is facilitated by the Campus Pastor and student ministry assistants, Campus Interfaith Board (a student board), and the Religious Life Committee (composed of faculty, staff and students).

The Religious Life program includes activities such as weekly ecumenical chapel services (Thursdays at 3:30 p.m.), Praise Jam (Wednesdays at 10 p.m.), discussion groups and other small group opportunities, Bible studies, service projects, retreats, dialogues and guest speakers.

The mission of Manchester University’s Religious Life program:

• Consistent with the University’s roots in the Church of the Brethren, the Religious Life program creates opportunities for students from Christian traditions to nurture and deepen their faith through worship, fellowship, learning, discipleship, and service.
  
• Committed to welcoming and serving students of all faiths, the Religious Life Program seeks to understand and address the spiritual needs of a religiously diverse student body.
  
• In an atmosphere that encourages the search for truth, learning about and respecting differences, and a commitment to service, the Religious Life program affirms the freedom of students both to share their faith with others, and to explore, question, understand, and celebrate the diverse faiths represented in the campus community and beyond.
  
• The Religious Life program seeks to deepen and make more fruitful its relationship with the Church of the Brethren.
