The “Hub” is located on the first floor of the Stover Campus Center. This meeting space has a living room-like atmosphere with couches, music, resources and access to campus ministry staff. During the week, many campus Bible studies and small groups take place in the Center for Campus Ministry.

Tuesday mornings at 11 AM are set aside for chapel at Waynesburg University. Students, faculty, and staff are encouraged to gather for worship, prayer, and to grow in Scripture. Chapel features a variety of speakers; both on-campus ministry staff and guest speakers including local pastors and faculty members. Our chapel service takes place in Roberts Chapel.

Upper Room features student-led worship and a student testimony every Sunday evening at 8 p.m. in Roberts Chapel. Upper Room creates an intentional time for students to reflect on Christ and praise God within an encouraging community of fellow students.

The Newman Club, along with the Diocese of Pittsburgh, provide a variety of ministry opportunities for our Catholic students on campus. Students can attend mass weekly on Tuesday at 6 PM in Roberts Chapel. From prayer gatherings, Bible studies, and our local partnership with nearby parishes, our Catholic students have many opportunities to grow in Christ and in community while at WU.

Waynesburg University student-athletes meet Monday nights in the Stover Campus Center at 9 PM as they come together and celebrate the impact of Jesus Christ as the foundation of their lives. FCA empowers and encourages students to use their God given potential to impact the world around them and to spread the good news of Jesus Christ. Many of our athletic teams also hold Bible studies and incorporate prayer as part of their team values.

Throughout the week, you can find Bible studies & small groups meeting in residence halls, in the Center for Campus Ministry, and through local churches. Students meet to grow in their faith in Jesus Christ and to grow in community with one another. A listing of all groups can be found in the Center for Campus Ministry on the first floor of the Stover Campus Center.

Waynesburg University students are encouraged to attend and get involved with local churches in the area, with several churches being located in walking distance to campus. A variety of churches offer mid-week programming directed at Waynesburg University students including home cooked meals, coffee house nights, and Bible study. Many WU students provide leadership and service to local youth groups, children’s ministries, or serve on worship teams. Our local churches are intentional in caring for our students through mentorship and welcoming students to the community. Churches are invited to the campus at the beginning of the school year to meet our students and to share about opportunities for students to grow in Christ.

During your journey at Waynesburg University, you may choose to be involved in a leadership and ministry opportunity as a Campus Ministry Assistant (CMA). CMA's are student leaders who serve our community by creating Bible studies and building intentional relationships across campus that enhance the spiritual development, community, and mission of Waynesburg University.
