At the core of the IWU experience is the spiritual encouragement you will receive as you participate with our campus community in pursuit of a relationship with our Creator. From engaging speakers and worship in Chapel, to encouraging conversations in the dorms, to supportive faculty who will take the time to talk to you about your journey, we believe God desires to speak into the lives of each of our students.
You will have real opportunities here to do more than just talk about your faith; you will be able to live it out in practical ways. Students have many opportunities to serve on campus, off campus, and internationally. Our mission of encouraging students to be World Changers is not just a cliché, it's really happening. Why don't you join us on the journey?
Chapel
Dean of Spiritual Formation & Campus Pastor
Rev. Dr. Andrea Sumers is the first person to hold the Campus Pastor/Dean of Spiritual Formation title. The position title was formerly titled Dean of the Chapel.
“Leadership, teaching, strategic thinking and preaching are strengths God has given me,” says Summers. “I have an intuitive ability to see where a group or organization needs to go, bring together the right people, communicate vision in a way that allows others to take ownership, and then release leaders to minister effectively. This highly relational and demanding style of leadership energizes me because I love seeing others live in to all God has created them to be.”
The Chapel Office at Indiana Wesleyan University creates space for our community to be shaped into the image of Christ for the sake of others, to the glory of God. We believe that transformation into the image of Christ involves a faithful integration of worship, education, spiritual practices, fellowship and service and The Chapel Office works to provide opportunities to grow in each of these areas through a variety of ministries and experiences.
The IWU community is a disciple-making culture committed to changing the world by helping students grow in Christ's likeness and take their next spiritual step. Students have a variety of spiritually formative opportunities to learn healthy, holy rhythms that reflect a deep love for God and the Holy Spirit's work in their life.
At IWU, our goal is to help students change the world through lives that are deeply rooted in Christ and deeply committed to living out His values. The world is in desperate need of professionals who are passionate about Jesus, and IWU is in the business of helping that happen!
