The Spiritual Life Center supports multiple student-led groups. Denison has active programs for Christian, Jewish, Muslim, and Buddhist students. Students who are more broadly spiritual without a specific tradition gather in other affinity groups such as Earth Spirituality or Twice Blessed (LGBTQ). Two musical groups on campus, Gospel Choir and Tehilla, provide additional opportunities.

Several local churches provide Sunday service and the Spiritual Life Center works with students to arrange transportation to worship centers outside of Granville for special opportunities.

The Spiritual Life Center also holds meditation and mindfulness events, and spiritual healing, and celebrates a wide variety of holidays and observances. The staff is always willing to nurture a new group, offer spiritual direction, or engage in dialogue.

The Chaplain, along with members of the Denison faculty and local clergy, serves in an advisory capacity for our student-led organizations. Leadership positions and other opportunities, such as establishment of new organizations, are available.
