Fellowship & Bible Studies

Opportunities for spiritual fellowship abound on campus and can be formally led by professors, informally led by students, classes held in partnership with Emory United Methodist Church, or a book study hosted by Chaplain Briggs.  At Emory & Henry you will find discussion groups on keeping the faith in your future occupation, meetings with fellow athletes, and retreats to help you remember that life is not always about the next test.

Kerygma

"Kerygma" is a Greek word meaning "proclamation." At Emory & Henry, Kerygma is an organization dedicated to providing perspectives and insight into church vocations as well as helping people discern God's wil for their lives, whether as professional church workers or lay persons. Kerygma invites a wide range of guest speakers from all types of careers to discuss how to keep spirituality alive in daily life and work. Also, Kerygma sponsors tours of theological schools and assists in planning the Sunday night worship service.
