Seminary Campus Life

Campus life at Ambrose Seminary is all about creating meaningful community amongst students and between students and faculty. Community is vital to formation, learning and development, especially during the unique life stage of attending seminary.

Opportunities for fellowship give you the chance to process and apply the things you’re learning in your studies while also connecting with other people who are following God’s calling on their lives, whether in ministry or academics.

Seminary Commons

This is a relaxing and welcoming space for seminary students to call their own. It has plenty of comfortable seating and tables so you can study, enjoy a conversation or have a bite to eat with your classmates in a quiet corner of the campus. Access is generally restricted to seminary students.

Worship & Retreats

Word & Table Chapel
Seminary students are encouraged to grow spiritually and participate in community through Chapel. There is a special Word and Table Chapel once a month led by the Campus Chaplain with the help of Ambrose seminary students. Each service culminates at the Lord’s Table, as those who have gathered together in worship come forward for communion. After the service, there is a seminary lunch in the Seminary Commons.

Service Times

• Tuesdays and Thursdays, 11:15am – 12pm in the Ambrose Gym 
• Word and Table Chapel is on the Third Thursday of the Month

Seminary Retreats

Twice every year, seminary students are invited to step away from their regular routines and surroundings and take time for prayer, personal reflection and group discussion. 

These retreats are ideal occasions to build meaningful relationships based on spiritual companionship with your fellow students. They’re also a chance to re-focus on your own spiritual journey, your relationship with God and your vocational path.

Seminary Student Leadership

The Seminary Student Leadership Team unites and edifies the seminary student body by planning social and spiritual life events for seminary students and represents the interests of Ambrose Seminary to the administration. Email sslt@ambrose.edu for more information.
