About the Office

The Office of the Chaplain at Albion College works to create a spiritual context that is open, affirming, and caring for the entire College community. We celebrate the diversity of the human spiritual experience and actively promote a pluralistic learning context. People of all religions (and no religion), cultures, ethnicities, and sexual orientations are welcomed and affirmed in their spiritual journey.

These individuals are dedicated to the organization, coordination, promotion, and discernment work for all the various programs sponsored by the office.
