Religious & Spiritual Life

We Gather Together to Become a Blessing

Religion and spirituality—they’re part of who we are. Drew has roots in the Methodist faith and reaches out to embrace everyone. That means people of all faiths—and those who are agnostic or atheist—have a place here. We worship, celebrate, mark life changes and find common goals engaging in social justice and community service together.

The Drew Religious Life Council

Group chats in Seminary Hall, vigils for peace, a celebration of the Festival of Lights—these are just some of the ways the Drew Religious Life Council honors religion and spirituality.

The Council includes members of these student organizations:

  • Catholic Campus Ministry
  • DHARMA Hindu Student Association
  • Episcopal Student Association
  • Hillel Jewish Student Association
  • Intervaristy Christian Fellowship
  • Muslim Student Association

These organizations from Drew Theological School also participate:

  • Theological Student Association
  • Black Ministerial Caucus
  • Korean Caucus
  • Latino/a Caucus
