The Gathering Chapel is a time where the entire campus community assembles for a time of prayer, worship through singing, listening to a message, and celebrating the Lord’s Supper. As students, faculty, and staff meet together, it is our hope that God would use this time to shape us into the image of Jesus, as individuals and as a group. The Gathering Chapel takes place on Tuesdays from 9:30 AM-10:30 AM at College Church of the Nazarene. Each Gathering Chapel is worth 1 SFC and students are required to receive 10 SFC from the Gathering Chapel each semester.

The Growing Chapels focus on helping us develop our faith by creating space for intentional times of discipleship and dialogue. Growing Chapels include our Prof. Talk series, where we interview a faculty member, a staff member, or coach from the MNU community. Growing Chapels also include our Christ and Culture series where we wrestle with how our Christian faith is lived out in the world. Growing Chapels also include 6 weeks where we will have small groups that students can be a part of to explore and deepen their faith in Christ. Growing Chapels take place Thursdays from 9:30-10:30 AM in the Bell Cultural Events Center. Growing Chapels are each worth 1 SFC.

Kingdom Come Chapel is a focused time at the end of the day where we gather to sing our prayers and praises to God.  Led by our Student Chaplains, Kingdom Come typically includes a time of singing, prayer, hearing from an MNU student and celebrating the Lord’s Supper together. These services are on one Wednesday night each month  from 9:30PM TO 10:30 PM in the Weatherby Chapel.  Kingdom Come Chapels are each worth 1 SFC.

The Christian faith was always meant to be practiced in community.  Athletic teams, residence hall groups, groups focused on particular majors, and groups that anyone can sign up, for will be the communities that we will journey with for 6 weeks.  Each small group will include praying together, discussion over the Christian faith, and a time of encouragement.  Small groups provide students the opportunity to select content that matches where they are in their Christian walk.  Each small group is worth 1 SFC each time you meet.  To learn more about small groups click on the “Small Groups” link above.

Go Group ministries are opportunities for students to go serve in a variety of places around the Olathe and Kansas City area. MNU students visit the elderly, help serve meals to those in need, and mentor children and teens. These ministries take place on a variety of days and times throughout the week. Sign-ups to be a part of these ministries take place at the beginning of each semester. Go Group ministries are worth 1 SFC each time a student attends.
