Faith, Community,
& Belonging
TCU’s Office of Religious & Spiritual Life supports students as they explore spiritual growth, faith development, religious practice and questions of meaning and purpose. We work to create a campus environment where all members of the TCU community feel welcome to express their beliefs, values and traditions.
Students can connect with more than 20 religious student organizations, find local faith and spiritual communities, participate in programs and events, and receive support from our office. Wherever students are in their faith or spiritual journey, Religious & Spiritual Life is here to help them connect, reflect and grow.
Our Mission
The mission of Religious and Spiritual Life is to care for the lives of students and the university community through supporting the pursuit of spiritual growth, faith development and religious practice while fostering a campus atmosphere in which members may freely and fully express their beliefs and values.
We do this through:
- Advising student religious organizations, student leaders and affiliated staff;
- Offering pastoral and spiritual care in times of celebration, loss and transition;
- Providing worship and resources to mark special times in the academic and religious calendars;
- Offering programs, support and resources for the exploration of faith, spirituality, values & religion.
Our Values
Religious and Spiritual Life’s values are built upon the already existing values of the university, division of student affairs and TCU’s denominational partner, the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). These values include:
- Radical Hospitality and Acceptance
- Life-Giving Relationships and Community
- Thoughtful Reflection and Self-Awareness
