• Deepen their own practice, beliefs, questions, and commitments.

• Connect with others to explore questions of meaning and purpose

• Explore questions of meaning and purpose

The Sacred Space at the Haebler Memorial Chapel, the Multifaith Prayer and Meditation Space (Bacon 104, Mary Fisher), the Esther Ann Brown Adler Hillel Lounge (Heubeck), and the Chapel Undercroft are the primary locations for religious life at Goucher.

The Sacred Space is open every day and evening (including weekends) for silence, solitude, and prayer. There are events scheduled in the Sacred Space (music, religious, other) as well.

Chaplain Maeba Jonas supports and oversees all aspects of religious and spiritual life at Goucher. Her office is located in the chapel basement.

Hillel will connect with students virtually, offering a variety of sessions (often through Facebook). Goucher Christian Fellowship is available to talk with and support students as well. Watch for information about other groups and ways to connect around spiritual practice or conversation. Let us know if you are looking for specific ways to connect with others.
