Religious Life Council

The religious life council serves as a coordinating group for the various religious opportunities on campus. This group consists of campus minister, the campus ministry interns, representatives of student religious groups, and faculty/staff campus ministry representatives. Ottawa University enjoys a close relationship with churches in the community whose ministers and lay people also provide opportunities for worship, fellowship and personal involvement. On special weekends, worship services are provided on campus, but students are encouraged to make connections in the local churches for their ongoing Sunday worship. The intent of campus ministries is to facilitate a variety of religious experiences because of the school’s unique heritage and connection with the American Baptist denomination and continued focus on providing a liberal education.
