Religious
Albion College Hillel
Albion College Hillel offers a voice to the Jewish students
on campus to improve awareness about cultural issues. To
achieve this, the group provides programs such as performers
and speakers for the College. The group also serves to
provide the Jewish students with opportunities to explore and
celebrate their religious and cultural heritage by planning trips
to areas that have large Jewish populations. Most
importantly, it enables both the students and faculty to
celebrate the holidays and traditions together.
Albion College Quakers
The purpose of the Albion College Quakers
is to provide support, fellowship, and
recognition for students interested in the
Religious Society of Friends; and to allow
people who are uninformed about the
beliefs of the Religious Society of
Friends to learn what it means to be a
Quaker.

athletes of Albion College for Jesus
Christ through the influences of
sports. This is accomplished through
small group Bible studies, discipleship,
summer opportunities and a conference.

Campus
Crusade for Christ is an international, interdenominational Christian ministry

Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA)

of Christian Athletes is a
diverse community of believers who
strive to implement the will of God in
their everyday lives. You
need not be a varsity athlete to join as

led by Christians and open to all. Our
activities consist of discussions of
contemporary issues concerning us as
college students, prayer groups, study
breaks, and lots of spontaneous fun.
InterVarsity Christian Fellowship
InterVarsity Christian Fellowship is an interdenominational
group whose purpose is to build student-led collegiate
fellowships that are committed to evangelism, discipleship,
engagement of the campus in all its diversity, and the world
mission of the church in obedience to the gospel of Jesus
Christ. Our chapter is affiliated with the international IVCF,
and we participate in a number of conferences and training
events. We have large group meetings, smaller Bible studies
in every residence hall, regular prayer meetings, and various
social events. Everyone is welcome to participate in any of
our activities.
Muslim Student Association

be a support for Muslim students at Albion
College in order to create a healthy,
welcoming climate on campus. Open to all
students, faculty, and staff, the
organization also provides programming
about Islam and strives to correct any
negative stereotypes, discrimination,
and/or religious prejudice that may occur
on campus.
Newman Club
The Newman Club is made up of young
Catholic adults who gather in
fellowship, prayer, study, and service
to support one another on the journey of
life. Although the focus of our
discussions are about the Catholic
religion, students of any religious
background are invited to participate.
Students of Destiny
The purpose of the Students of Destiny is to create a community of
Christians devoted to spiritual growth,
outreach ministry, and reaching their
destiny. The mission of this
organization is to increase knowledge
about the life of Jesus Christ according
to the Hebrew Bible, provide a support
group for Christians on Albion’s Campus,
while actively participating in
community service projects and
conducting events devoted to teaching
the Gospel and helping students teach
their destiny. Membership in the
Students of Destiny is not limited by
race. However, a core mission of the
group is to provide a place of
hospitality and spiritual growth for
African-American students. Attention to
issues of race and ethnicity is central
to the group's life.
Wesley Fellowship
Wesley Fellowship is a welcoming group
that strives to connect students to real
relationships with God, each other, and
the rest of the world. We operate out of
a Christian framework but are a group for
all students who want to grow spiritually,
discuss ideas and concerns, and serve
others. While historically United
Methodist, Wesley welcomes all students
interested in faith and celebrates the
diversity that is to be found in Albion.
Weekly meetings consist of some kind of
activity (ultimate, Cranium etc.),
reflection, and discussion over dinner
with interspersed service and cultural
events.
