1) Sunday Night Chapel

 

Nia Fonéy ’15 is preaching this week at Sunday Night Chapel (5pm in Rollins) and the Morning Glory Singers will sing two special songs as well.  Hope to see you there.

 

The term’s theme - “Dear Dartmouth” - gives our student preachers an opportunity to reflect back on their Dartmouth career and share how their faith has grown because of their time here, through times of joy and struggle.

So take a break from studying, come here Nia preach about her faith experience at Dartmouth, be blessed by the music of the Morning Glory Singers, and leave renewed.  All are welcome.
