About the Wheaton College Chapel Program
The Chapel program seeks to nurture the spiritual life of students in the context of an academic environment. The graduate and undergraduate student bodies gather together in community every Wednesday at 10:40am in Edman Chapel. The undergraduate student body also gathers on Mondays and Fridays at the same time. Chapel messages are given by our chaplain, president, faculty and staff, as well as guests, known for their Christian leadership and relevant messages to the church and culture. The various forms and liturgies used in the design of Chapel Worship take advantage of the richness and diversity of Wheaton’s interdenominational constituency; variety in worship forms, traditions, and music enriches the educational and experiential dimension of the chapel program. Another educational component of chapel includes the consideration of theological, social, ethical, psychological, and political issues from a distinctively Christian and Biblical perspective.
The year verse for the 2026-2027 academic year is Acts 14:22: "Strengthen the disciples by encouraging them to continue in the faith and by telling them, “It is necessary to pass through many troubles to enter the kingdom of God.” (CSB)
Visitors are always welcome to attend chapel and at times have the opportunity to sit among our faculty, staff, and graduate students.
