Higher Education

Providing Spiritual Support

The Church includes people in all ages and states of life. College is a formative period in the lives of many and we hope to facilitate and strengthen the connection of college students, as well as faculty, and staff, with the life of the Church. Whether through diocesan or congregation-based chaplaincies, the Diocese of Tennessee seeks to provide spiritual support to students and others involved with institutions of higher education.
